Avacado Deviled Eggs

This is a recipe that my cousin Alison discovered and is always a hit! 

Ingredients

Original recipe makes 12 servings
6 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and halved
1 small avocado - peeled, pitted, and diced
3 slices cooked bacon, chopped, divided
2 1/2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 teaspoons lime juice
1 clove garlic, crushed
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
sea salt to taste
1 jalapeno pepper, sliced(optional)
1 dash hot sauce, or to taste(optional)

Directions

  1. Scoop egg yolks into a bowl; add avocado, 2/3 of chopped bacon, mayonnaise, lime juice, garlic, cayenne pepper, and salt. Mash egg yolk mixture until filling is evenly combined.
  2. Spoon filling into a piping bag or plastic bag with a snipped corner. Pipe filling into each egg white; top with a bacon piece, jalapeno slice, and dash hot sauce.
 
Notes: I used a pickled jalapeno slice and removed 1 whole egg yolk to make room for the avocado. I used half of a Haas avocado.
