FAQs

Can I make these deviled eggs ahead of time?

Yes, you can prep the eggs and filling separately and assemble them just before serving to keep them fresh.

How do I keep the avocado from turning brown?

Add a bit of extra lime or lemon juice and store tightly covered to reduce exposure to air.

Can I use store-bought guacamole?

Yes, but homemade guac allows for better flavor control and fewer preservatives.

Are these deviled eggs keto-friendly?

Absolutely—they’re low in carbs and high in healthy fats.

What type of avocado works best?

Use ripe, creamy Hass avocados for the smoothest texture.

Can I use a food processor for the filling?

What’s the best way to pipe the filling?

Use a piping bag with a round or star tip for a clean, professional look—or simply spoon it in.

Can I make these spicy?

Yes, just add diced jalapeño, chili powder, or a dash of hot sauce to the filling.

Are these good for meal prep?

They can be made a few hours in advance, but are best eaten the same day due to avocado’s tendency to brown.

You can mix in finely shredded cheddar or cotija cheese for a unique flavor variation.
