Ingredients
- 9 Eggs
- 1 Avocado halved and pitted
- 2 Tbsp Sour Cream
- 1 1/2 teaspoons lime juice
- 1/3 cup seeded and finely chopped Roma tomato 1 to 2 Roma tomatoes
- 1/4 cup finely chopped scallions
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 to 2 teaspoons finely chopped jalapeño
- Fresh cilantro to garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Make the hard-boiled eggs: Fill a large pot with water, add all the eggs, and bring mixture to a boil over high heat. As soon as the water begins to boil, cover with a lid, remove pot from the heat, and let eggs sit for 10 minutes. Drain water and transfer eggs to a bowl of cold water to cool.
- When the eggs are cool enough to handle, remove the shells. Slice each egg in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks, adding just 2 whole egg yolks into a medium bowl and discarding the remaining 7 egg yolks. Place the egg white halves onto a platter.
- Slice the avocado in half and remove the pit. Use a spoon to scoop the avocado’s flesh into a bowl. Use a fork to mash the egg yolks and the avocado together. Stir in the sour cream and lime juice.
- Remove the seeds from the tomatoes with a spoon and discard; finely chop the tomato, along with finely chopping the scallions. Add both to the mashed avocado, along with salt, pepper, and optional jalapeno. Stir together to combine.
- Spoon the guacamole into each egg white half, dividing the mixture between all 18. Garnish with a sprinkle of dried or fresh chopped cilantro, if desired. Serve.
