Instructions
Creating Avocado Deviled Eggs is straightforward. Follow these easy steps:
1. Boil the Eggs: Place the eggs in a pot of cold water. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, cover the pot and remove from heat. Let eggs sit for 10-12 minutes.
2. Cool the Eggs: After the time is up, transfer the eggs to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Allow them to cool for about 5 minutes.
3. Peel the Eggs: Gently tap the cooled eggs on a hard surface to crack the shells, then peel them under running water to help remove the shell easily.
4. Prepare the Filling: Slice the peeled eggs in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks and place them in a medium bowl. Add the avocado, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lime juice, salt, and pepper to the bowl.
5. Mash the Mixture: Using a fork or a potato masher, blend the yolks and avocado mixture until smooth and creamy.
6. Fill the Eggs: Spoon or pipe the avocado filling back into the egg whites.
7. Garnish: Sprinkle paprika over the filled eggs and top with chopped cilantro for a fresh touch.
8. Serve: Plate the Avocado Deviled Eggs and enjoy immediately, or refrigerate until you are ready to serve.
