Step 1: Boil the Eggs
Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Make sure the water is about one inch above the eggs.Herbs & Spices
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling:
Cover the pan
Turn off the heat
Let the eggs sit for 10–12 minutes
After cooking, immediately transfer the eggs into a bowl of ice water. This stops the cooking process and makes peeling easier.
Let them cool for about 5 minutes before peeling.
Pro Tip:
Using slightly older eggs helps them peel more easily than very fresh eggs.
Step 2: Prepare the Avocado Filling
Slice the eggs in half lengthwise and carefully remove the yolks.
Place the yolks in a mixing bowl along with:
The avocado
Lemon juice
Greek yogurt
Garlic powder
Paprika
Salt and pepper
Mash everything together with a fork until smooth and creamy. For an extra silky texture, you can use a food processor.Lemons
The lemon juice not only adds flavor but also helps keep the avocado bright green.
Step 3: Fill the Egg Whites
Using a spoon or piping bag, fill each egg white half with the avocado mixture.Herbs & Spices
