Deviled Eggs or Angel Eggs as our family calls them are a
favorite side dish for a carry in meal. However, I never liked them. I thought
it was a good way to ruin an egg, the reason being, I do not like mayonnaise or
mustard.
This holiday season I wanted to try my hand at making guacamole-deviled
eggs, however, the recipes all differed far too much. I remembered mom making
standard deviled eggs and just adding mayonnaise and mustard to the egg yolk
left extra filling in the bowl. So taking four eggs and adding two avocados and
other ingredients I knew there would be way too much filling for the eggs.
Keeping this in mind, I thought I would simply make my guacamole recipe using avocados, cumin, garlic powder, sweet onion, tomato, jalapeno
peppers, lime juice and salt and pepper. Normally I would have used a red or
orange sweet pepper for the guacamole; I simply did not have any.
After boiling a dozen eggs, peeling and cutting them in ½,
making the guacamole, I took an egg and did a trial run. I popped out the egg
yolk then added the same amount of guacamole and mashed it all together. I then
filled the egg halves and tasted. It was an oh my goodness moment. The taste of
this deviled egg was one that I could enjoy.
