Awesome recipe!!!! Definite Keeper. I highly recommend that this recipe be made as written. mine turned out absolutely wonderful. Huge Huge Hit! Loved the creaminess and the flavor was perfect. Had my guest trying to figure out what was in it! I just smiled and said "here have another" I will definitely make this again... may not make deviled eggs any other way! Love the avocado, *YUM* Thanks for sharing. Made for ZWT3 -
This is a fantastic recipe for deviled eggs! I skipped the food processor step (I like my deviled eggs with a little texture) and used dijon mustard. The filling is such a nice shade of green. I had some leftover filling, which made a great sandwich spread. This might just be my new favorite deviled egg recipe. Thanks so much for sharing! -
I didn't do the onion/celery step due to laziness and my avocado was overripe so the coloring was a tad off - I didn't use my measuring tools like I usually do and so the mustard was a bit on the strong side but didn't think I was really over the amt required. Just wanted to use up the avocado and we did eat all the eggs.
