Ingredients
- 6 large egg
- 1 medium avocado peeled and pitted, ripe
- 1 ½ Tablespoon lime juice freshly squeezed
- 2 Tablespoons cilantro finely chopped, plus more for topping
- ¾ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- black pepper to taste
- smoked paprika for serving
Instructions
- Add eggs into a medium pot and cover them with cool water by 1 inch. Bring water to a boil over medium-high heat; when the water has reached a boil, cover and remove from heat. Let sit for 12 minutes.
- Once the time is up, transfer the eggs to a colander under cool running water or a bowl full of ice water to stop the cooking.
- Split hard boiled eggs in half lengthwise with a knife.
- Remove yolks from the eggs, adding them to a medium mixing bowl.
- Add avocado, 1 Tablespoon lime juice, cilantro, garlic powder and salt to the bowl with the yolks. Smash everything together with a fork. If the mixture seems too dry add another ½ Tablespoon lime juice. Season with pepper to taste.
- Fill each hard boiled egg white with the avocado mixture using a spoon. Alternatively, you can add the yolk mixture to a piping bag or plastic bag and cut the corner off to create a piping bag. When ready to serve, pipe the filling into the eggs. Garnish with additional cilantro and smoked paprika. Enjoy!

Notes
- Storage: Store leftover avocado deviled eggs in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within 1-2 days.
- Meal-prep: For make-ahead prep, keep the egg whites and avocado mixture separate, pressing plastic wrap onto the filling to prevent browning. Assemble just before serving for the best texture and freshness.
