Guacamole Deviled Eggs – Recipe
Have you been looking for a light recipe to bring to a picnic or a special event?
I have a perfect one for you to proudly whip up, and enjoy with your family and friends.
I like preparing deviled eggs, because they are such a fun party food to bring along, and very easy to prepare.
Since some people are not very fond of mayonnaise, this recipe is perfect, as it uses mashed avocado instead, as well as only some of the egg yolks, cutting down on overall cholesterol, and calories.
This recipe yields 12 servings.
