Cook Time: 10 minPrep Time: 30 min
Yield: 12 servings 

Ingredients:
12 Eggs
1 Avocado (Cut Into small dice) (Easiest way to clean an avocado is to cut around the pit with a knife, separating the two halves of the avocado. To remove the pit, carefully strike the pit with the sharp end of your knife.
It should catch the pit and pull it out so you can remove it without crushing the meat of the avocado. Using a tablespoon, scoop each half of the avocado out of the peel.)
1 Handful of Assorted Fresh Herbs (I like using a combo of chives, Italian parsley and tarragon)
2 Garlic cloves
4 Tbl Sour Cream
Pinch Salt & Pepper
1 Tbl Lemon Juice
2 Tbl Mayonnaise
3 slices cooked bacon

Instructions:
Place the eggs in a saucepan. Cover with cold water and a pinch of salt.
Bring to a boil. Cook the eggs approx. 10 mins. Remove from heat and run cold water over the eggs to stop the cooking process. Once cooled, peel the eggs and cut them in half, removing the yolks carefully without tearing the egg whites. Combine half of the yolks with the avocado, herbs, garlic, sour cream, salt and pepper, lemon juice and mayonnaise in the bowl of a food processor. Blend until the mixture forms a smooth paste. Place the filling into a Ziploc baggie. Cut a small hole in the bottom corner of the baggie and pipe the mixture into the prepared egg whites. Top each egg with a piece of crumbled bacon. Serve immediately.


Notes:
Inspired by the classic Dr. Seuss book, this recipe is great for a cocktail party. It is a crowd pleaser and a good conversation piece. A reminder that it cannot be made too far in advance as the avocado will oxidize and turn brown.
