- In a separate bowl, scoop out the flesh of the ripe avocado and mash it with a fork until smooth.
- Add the mashed avocado to the egg yolks, then mix in the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lime juice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined and creamy.
3. Stuff the Eggs:
- Spoon the avocado mixture into the hollow of each egg half. You can also use a piping bag to make it look more decorative.
4. Garnish and Serve:
- Sprinkle paprika on top of the filled eggs for added flavor and color, if desired.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro or chopped chives for a fresh touch.
