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 to 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 a mashed avocado instead, as well as only some of the egg yolks, cutting down on overall cholesterol, and calories.
This recipe yields 12 servings.
