And when using store-bought guacamole, it’s also an incredibly easy recipe to make. It only requires three basic ingredients, and it’s ready in about 15 minutes. I love deviled eggs. It’s one of my favorite appetizers, and when I eat out, I always order it if it’s available. But it’s also very easy to make at home! Avocado deviled eggs are the perfect snack or appetizer. And the best part? You make this super easy recipe with just three ingredients! How easy is that!

Hard-boiled eggs: For this recipe, you’ll need to boil the eggs until the yolks are well-cooked. So, if you use my recipe for hard-boiled eggs, you should keep them in the hot water for 12-13 minutes. Prepared guacamole: This makes life so easy! But if you’re not as lazy as I am, you can mash a ripe avocado with lemon juice, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and maybe a little cayenne. Mayonnaise: While not strictly necessary, it does add creaminess and flavor. You can replace it with additional avocado if you wish. Red pepper flakes: I use them mostly as a garnish, so they’re optional. But if you like your food spicy, you can be generous with them and spice up the eggs.
You start by slicing each egg in half lengthwise. Gently remove the yolks and place them in a medium bowl. Arrange the egg white halves on a serving plate. Mash the egg yolks well with a fork. Add the guacamole and mayonnaise and keep mashing and mixing until smooth. Sprinkle the eggs with red pepper flakes (optional but pretty) and serve. See? Easy! I sometimes do it, but you do end up wasting some of the mixture (it clings to the piping bag), so I usually don’t bother.
