I was bored with traditional deviled eggs and had been trying to find more ways to cook with avocados. I made these for a Kentucky Derby party and all 24 were gone within minutes! Next time I will need to make a double batch.
Ingredients
- 12 eggs
- 2 avocadoss - halved , pitted, and mashed
- 1 small white onion , diced
- 1 plum (Roma) tomato , seeded and diced
- 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 lime , juiced
- 1 jalapeno pepper , seeded and minced
- 2 teaspoons chopped garlic
- salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 24 pickleds garlic cloves , such as Sonoma Farm Tex-Mex Sweet & Hot Garlic Cloves®
- 8 pickleds jalapeno pepper slices , minced
Instructions
-
1
Place eggs in a saucepan; cover with water. Bring to a boil, remove from heat, and let eggs stand in hot water for 15 minutes. Remove eggs from hot water, cool under cold running water, and peel.
-
2
Stir together mashed avocado, onion, tomato, cilantro, lime juice, jalapeno, and chopped garlic; season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate guacamole, tightly covered, for 1 hour.

3
Drain pickled garlic cloves and minced pickled jalapeno on a plate lined with paper towels.

4
Cut each egg in half lengthwise; set yolks aside for another use. Clean away any remaining yolk from egg white halves with a wet paper towel. Place egg whites cut-side up on a serving platter.

Spoon a generous amount of guacamole into each egg white half; top each deviled egg with a pickled garlic clove. Sprinkle minced pickled jalapeno, salt, and black pepper over deviled eggs.
