Deviled Avocado Eggs
1 dozen hard-cooked large eggs, peeled
2 medium avocados, seeded with "meat" scooped into a bowl
4-5 teaspoons lime juice
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon ground red cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon salt
cilantro leaves and/or green onions, chopped, for garnish
Thoughts:
• Avocados should be ripe but not mushy.
• Avoid avocados with large indentations on the skin; this could indicate bruising.
• This recipe is gluten-free
Instructions
Slice eggs in half lengthwise. Scoop out the yolks and place in a medium bowl. (Be careful not to damage the white halves).
Add avocado to bowl, and mash yolks and avocado thoroughly with a fork until fairly smooth. Add lime juice, garlic powder, cayenne and salt. Stir well to blend all ingredients.
Place filling in the whites using a small spoon or pipe in with a pastry bag and decorative tube.
Garnish as desired. Serve immediately or refrigerate in a tightly covered container.
