Guacamole Deviled Eggs

Written by Published on in deviled eggs, holiday leftover recipes, recipes, repurposing leftovers, snacks & apps

Ingredients:
10 hardboiled eggs, peeled and sliced length-wise
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon minced hot pepper
1 teaspoon minced onion
1 small avocado
hot sauce

to garnish:
baby cherry tomato halves

Directions:
In a small bowl, use a fork and thoroughly mix together all ingredients. Spoon an equal amount into each of the egg halves. Top each with a baby tomato half.

My thoughts:
I know I’ve posted a number of deviled egg recipes here, but this weekend I came into posession of some tiny (about the size of my pinky fingernail) cherry tomatoes and kept thinking what a cute garnish they’d be for a deviled egg. I had a fast approaching over ripe avocado and there you go-guacamole deviled eggs.

    What an original idea… did you still mash the yolks in with the avocado and other ingredients?

    I’ll bet these are realy good. For me, anything with avocados is great (except Avocado Ice Cream, and experiment gone awry!)I think I’ll try these next low-carb tapas night!
