Guacamole Deviled Eggs
You’ll be the talk of the potluck once you arrive with a tray of our guacamole deviled eggs. This is the kind of recipe where everyone hovers around the buffet table until all the ‘little devils’ are gone.
Preparing the eggs is easy—just a bit time consuming but totally worth it! If you’re looking for a unique dish to serve over a holiday or special occasion, this is it! The ultimate result is a traditional appetizer with a fun, great-tasting twist!
A medium avocado with the veggies and yolks will yield just the right amount of filling—and don’t be afraid to fill generously! If you want to kick up the heat, add some diced jalapeño to the guacamole mixture or sprinkle the tops of completed eggs with some red pepper flakes.

- Add diced tomato, chopped cilantro and sliced green onion then stir gently to combine. Squeeze in lime juice, then season with salt and pepper. Mix well and adjust seasoning if necessary with additional salt, pepper or lime juice.
- Spoon about 1 Tbsp of filling into each egg white and sprinkle tops lightly with chili powder. Refrigerate until ready to serve and enjoy.
