With our week of Easter post’s well underway, today we bring you these ridiculously tasty avocado deviled eggs. Oh and if it isn’t obvious, totally festive right? We mentioned in our last post that we like to keep things traditional. So what did we do, we dyed our eggs yellow of course. Keep reading, we’ll get back to that in a second
These cute bite sized appetizers are the perfect treat for your Easter gathering, or any gathering for that matter. The addition of the avocado unlike your normal deviled egg recipe, is very refreshing and different. And at this point, we won’t eat them any other way. It’s makes the filling even more creamy if you can believe it. YUM!

Now, back to our awesome yellow dyed eggs. We went with an all natural technique which added a hint of flavor that took this recipe to the next level. We soaked them in turmeric, water, and white vinegar. The egg shell came out a beautiful rustic mustard yellow, and the shelled egg came out a bright yellow. So fun right? We hope you all love this recipe as much as we do!
