Avocado Deviled Eggs

May 22, 2013

I’m totally obsessed with avocados.

Avocado Deviled Eggs

I eat one almost everyday.

I used to be a typical avocado eater and just eat it sliced up on my salads. Then suddenly avocados caught fire and I started seeing a new variety of avocado eats all over the cyber world. Avocados were going getting mashed and put on toast, they were being blended up and put in smoothies, they were being turned in to chocolate pudding [which I skeptically tried and feel instantly in love --- hubby still thinks it’s gross]. Avocados are everywhere I tell you!

The other day I was staring dumbly in my fridge. You know, doors wide open, trying to think of what to make out of the packed-but-there’s-nothing-to-eat-in-my-fridge. Side note: Am I the only one that does this? I mean I go grocery shopping every week, so it’s not like my fridge is empty.

I looked up at the two cartons of eggs stack high on the top shelf. Bing! A rare moment of brilliance hit me. This happens less and less now that my brain has become fried. A side of pregnancy that should be discussed more. For heavens sake, my baby brain is so bad that the other day I almost dusted my couch. No joke. I was in such a trance that when I was putting the coffee table pictures on the couch so I could dust the table I started to dust the couch. Send help please.

Back to the eggs.

I was craving them deviled. I love LOVE deviled eggs. I would eat a whole tray of them easily. And then I would regret it.

But if the deviled egg was filled with a creamy avocado filling maybe I wouldn’t. Because avocados are a healthy fat and a super food. And with all the egg whites on a tray of deviled eggs I’d be getting a good protein kick. So a tray of Avocado Deviled Eggs sounds like the perfect meal…just add a salad, right?

Done.

Cook Time: 10 minutes

Total Time: 15 minutes

Yield: 4 egg halves

Avocado Deviled Eggs

Ingredients

  • [I made these as a snack for myself, but multiply the recipe for more eggs]
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 ripe avocado
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon honey Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon mayonnaise
  • pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. In a small pot, boil eggs until hard, about 10 minutes. Peel off shell and cut eggs in half.
  2. In a small bowl place yolks from eggs and remaining ingredients in bowl. Smash up and mix to combine. I like to leave my filling a little chunky, but mash it to your liking. Fill the hole of the egg white halves with the filling. And scarf.

I’m almost afraid to say it, but this week was such a good one. Not that every week isn’t but this week suddenly Logan seemed to fall in to a schedule and I couldn’t be happier to have some what of a “routine”. This is how our day’s have been going the last 5 days. [...]

I’m here to save you from your Monday. Because we all know how Monday’s are. They’re the one day of the week that we all dread. Like you’d rather be at home cleaning the toilets and doing laundry than having to deal with a Monday. Am I right, or am I right. I feel like [...]

Whoops, I’m a week late posting this, but I hope that you’ll understand how hard it can be to stick to a schedule. The last five weeks have been such a roller coaster of emotions for me. Not only am I trying to adjust to having a newborn, I’m also trying to adjust to all [...]

Have you ever tried to do a full day of tasks with one hand? It’s hard…and it’s totally my life right now. My left arm is constantly occupied with a 10 pound baby hanging in it. And it’s caused me to make a major adjustment in how I operate. I’ve learned how to open medicine [...]

Every day I look at Logan and he looks a little different to me, but this week I really feel like he looks SO different from when he was born. He is such a big little chunker. He has absolutely no neck to look at now. It’s just two rolls of baby fat. Half of [...]

Five weeks ago today I became a mom. It’s the best, most hardest, rewarding, funnest, frustrating, enjoyable job I’ve ever had. I now have a whole different respect for moms and see parenting totally different. Thank you to my own mother for all your love, support, and dedication. Without such an amazing mother I don’t [...]
