One of my favorite dishes for Easter is deviled eggs. It's a perfect way to use up all those colorful Easter eggs and a favorite appetizer for your gathering. I've been experimenting with flavors and came up with two new favorites to spice up my appetizers and offer more options. Along with classic deviled eggs, I've got guacamole and spicy Sriracha deviled eggs. These recipes together use 12 hard boiled eggs, making 24 delicious appetizers.
Guacamole Deviled Eggs
4 hard boiled egg yolks
1/2 ripe avocado
3 tablespoons plain greek yogurt
2-3 teaspoons lime juice
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce (optional)
2 tablespoons minced red onion
2 tablespoons finely minced cilantro
salt and pepper to taste
Directions
Using a fork or potato masher, mash the yolks and avocado until fine. Mix in yogurt, lime juice, cumin, hot sauce, onion, cilantro, salt and pepper. Cover tightly and chill for at least an hour before spooning or piping into hollowed egg whites.
Sriracha Deviled Eggs
4 hard boiled egg yolks
4 tablespoons mayonaise
2 teaspoons dijon mustard
2-3 teaspoons lime juice
3-5 teaspoons Sriracha hot sauce (depending on taste)
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons finely minced cilantro
Directions
Using a fork or potato masher, mash the yolks until fine. Mix in mayonaise, mustard, lime juice, hot sauce, ginger, salt and pepper. Allow to chill for at least an hour before spooning or piping into hollowed egg whites. Garnish with cilantro leaves.
Classic Deviled Eggs
4 hard boiled egg yolks
4 tablespoons mayonaise or Miracle Whip
3 tablespoons dijon mustard
3 teaspoons sweet relish
1 teaspoon pickle juice
