    • Healthy Deviled Eggs Recipe with Avocado

    Deviled eggs are one of those traditional party snacks that look super intimidating but are actually one of the easiest appetizers to make!

    Make holiday entertaining easy! Healthy deviled eggs are great for your Thanksgiving or Christmas table right along with cranberry puff pastry bites, a small charcuterie board or healthy buffalo chicken dip.

    Why This Recipe Works:

    • These healthy deviled eggs are made healthier without mayo, yogurt or sour cream. For a healthy alternative, use avocado mash or just a bit of Greek yogurt or dairy free yogurt to make a creamy consistency.
    • Keto, gluten free and dairy free, these healthy deviled eggs will satisfy a number of dietary preferences.
    • The creamy texture of this classic potluck dish will have guests asking for more!
    • Quick to make, easy to double (or even triple!) and perfect to meal prep before summer picnics or gatherings.

    What You Need to Make this Recipe

    Here are the ingredients you need to make this recipe. Reference the recipe card at the bottom for exact measurements and the notes below for substitution ideas.

    ingredients you need for this recipe
    • 12 cooked eggs: You may buy eggs pre-cooked at the store or cook them at home. If you need a recipe for hard boiled eggs, my boiling eggs in the Instant Pot is perfect for easy peel eggs.
    • Avocado: No mayo here! You can also make them with Greek yogurt, cottage cheese or light sour cream if you prefer to make them without avocado.
    • Dijon Mustard: Yellow mustard may be substituted, however the dijon mustard gives them great zesty flavor and make the healthy deviled eggs so tasty! Honey mustard is also an option if you like the flavor.

    How To Make This Recipe

    This is a step by step walkthrough of how to cook this recipe. Exact cook time and temperatures are available in the recipe card at the bottom.

    steps for making this recipe
    1. Peel and slice cooked eggs in half lengthwise. Separate yolks from white adding yolks to a medium bowl.
    2. Mash egg yolks and avocado. Add in Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar and salt + pepper.
    3. Use a piping bag or a Ziploc plastic bag with a tiny slit cut in the bottom edge to create a tiny dollop of egg/avocado mixture on top of each egg white.
    4. Top with a sprinkling of paprika or Everything Bagel seasoning and garnishes such as thyme, chives or dill if desired.

    Expert Tips

    • Use a ripe (but not overly ripe) avocado to get the best consistency.
    • Make hard boiled eggs ahead up to two days before making the filling and assembling - get my super easy Ninja Foodi hard boiled egg recipe!
    • To serve: Add toppings such as bacon, chives, or hot sauce, horseradish, jalapeños & cayenne pepper (for a spicy version!) to vary your deviled eggs recipe. Serve on a tray.
    • Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

    Substitution Tips

    • Dairy free: Use avocado or substitute dairy free cashew milk yogurt for Greek yogurt.
    • Keto: Keep avocado, use full fat Greek yogurt and consider adding in other high fat ingredients like bacon or mayonnaise to keep fat high and carbs lower.
    • Paleo: Keep recipe as is for paleo deviled egg.
    • Vegetarian: Keep recipe as is for vegetarian deviled egg.
    • High protein: Add in tuna or another added protein source to up the protein.
    • Lower in calories/Weight Watchers: Use light or fat free Greek yogurt, sour cream or cottage cheese for a lower calorie deviled egg.
    • Southern style: make with pickle relish or pickles and hot sauce.

      Mash egg yolks and egg yolks. Should that say avocado because I don't see anywhere else to add the avocado in.

      Thanx for the great recipe too because I hate mayo :p
