Avocado Deviled Eggs

These deviled eggs are a good source of protein and healthy fats. They’re naturally low in carbs and high in fiber, thanks to the avocado. They also provide potassium, vitamins C and B6, and contain no added sugar.

I like to make these when I have extra hard-boiled eggs in the fridge. A tip that helps speed things up is using a food processor or hand blender to mix the filling. It makes everything smoother and saves time.

A bowl of brown eggs, an avocado, a lime, a garlic bulb, and small bowls of salt, pepper, and sour cream are arranged on a light countertop.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make these ahead of time?
Yes, but it’s best to make them the same day you’ll eat them. The avocado may brown a bit, even with lemon or lime juice.

What kind of avocado works best?
Use a ripe avocado that gives slightly when you press it. If it’s too firm, it won’t blend smoothly.

Can I add toppings?
Yes. Try a sprinkle of paprika, chopped bacon, or sliced green onions for extra flavor and texture. For a heartier appetizer, top it with shrimp, burnt ends, diced ham, or smoked salmon.

What if I don’t have lemon or lime juice?
You can skip it, but it helps keep the avocado from turning brown and adds a little brightness to the flavor.
