Preparation
  1. Hard boil your eggs, then cool them completely using an ice bath for easier peeling.
  2. Slice the eggs in half lengthwise and gently pop the yolks into a bowl.
  3. Add the avocado to the bowl with the yolks and mash until mostly smooth.
  4. Mix in lime juice, mayo or yogurt if using, garlic, cilantro, salt, and pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning.
  5. Spoon or pipe the filling back into the egg whites.
  6. Top with smoked paprika or any toppings you prefer.

Notes

Best enjoyed the day they are made. If prepping in advance, store egg filling with plastic wrap pressed onto the surface to reduce browning.
