Deviled eggs are a family favorite during holidays or summer months when we cook out. We have our favorite traditional recipe of course. But who doesn’t want a little variety every now and then?
When making deviled eggs, the main goal is to incorporate a little fat and some acid into the yolks. Traditionally this comes from mayonnaise, miracle whip, etc for the fat and a splash of vinegar for the acid. This recipe will mix up the healthy fat option by using avocado. The acid will come from lime juice.
Avocado deviled eggs are great substitute and will provide that bit of variety your gathering needs!
