What Makes This Recipe Special
These eggs offer a fresh twist on a classic favorite. The vibrant green color makes them eye-catching and fun to serve. They are creamy, tangy, and packed with flavor, perfect for any gathering.
Step 1
Place your eggs in a pot and covering them with water. Bring the water to a boil, then take the pot off the heat and let the eggs sit in the hot water for about 15 minutes. Once they’re done, run them under cold water to cool them down and peel off the shells.
Step 2
Mash up the avocado and mix it with the onion, tomato, cilantro, lime juice, jalapeño, and chopped garlic. Season the mixture with salt and pepper to your taste. Cover it up and pop it in the fridge for at least an hour to let the flavors meld.
Step 3
While the guacamole chills, drain the pickled garlic cloves and minced pickled jalapeño on some paper towels to get rid of excess liquid.
Step 4
Cut each egg in half lengthwise and carefully scoop out the yolks—you can save these for something else later. Wipe any leftover yolk from the egg white halves with a damp paper towel so they’re nice and clean. Arrange the egg whites cut-side up on a serving plate.
Step 5
Fill each egg white half with a good spoonful of the guacamole, then top each one with a pickled garlic clove. Sprinkle the minced pickled jalapeño over the top and add a little extra salt and pepper if you like. Enjoy!
