Description

Flavorful Mexican-inspired deviled eggs with avocado and lime, perfect for gatherings and appetizers.


Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 2 tablespoons sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon taco seasoning
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish
  • Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions

  1. Start by boiling the eggs: Place them in a saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a rolling boil. Once boiling, remove from heat and cover for about 10 minutes.
  2. After the eggs have cooked, transfer them to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Allow them to cool for at least 5 minutes.
  3. Peel the cooled eggs and slice them in half lengthwise. Carefully remove the yolks and place them in a mixing bowl.
  4. To the yolks, add the avocado, sour cream (or Greek yogurt), lime juice, Dijon mustard, taco seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mash and mix until smooth and creamy.
  5. Using a piping bag or a small spoon, fill the egg white halves with the creamy mixture.
  6. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve chilled or at room temperature.

Notes

Store leftover deviled eggs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Best to keep filling separate from egg whites until serving.
