Prep Time 15 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes
Servings 1 dozen

Ingredients
  

  • 6 hard boiled eggs
  • 1 large avocado
  • 2 strips bacon, cooked extra crispy
  • 1 tbs lime juice (About a half lime's worth)
  • 1 tbs red onion, minced
  • 1 tbs jalapeño, minced
  • 1 tbs cilantro, minced
  • 1 clove garlic, minced

Instructions
 

  • Peel and halve the hard boiled eggs. Put the yolks in a mixing bowl. Cube the avocado and add to the mixing bowl as well.
  • Slice or crumple one slice of bacon, and, you guessed it, add it to the mixing bowl along with the lime juice, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, garlic, salt, and pepper.
  • Mash up the mixture with a fork or potato masher until the mixture is relatively uniform. Spoon filling into egg whites directly, or use a piping bag.
  • Crumple the remaining bacon, and sprinkle over the eggs. Serve with a side of lime and cilantro for optional garnish. Top with chili powder for color, if desired.

Notes

The filling can be made and refrigerated a day ahead of time if needed.
