Preparation

  1. Remove yolks from halved eggs and place in a medium bowl. Mash the yolks with a fork and then add the mayonnaise, sour cream, chives, and 1 1/2 teaspoons of taco seasoning. Mix together well.
  2. Place mixture in a resealable plastic bag, snip off the corner, and pipe into the cooked egg whites.
  3. Top with finely diced avocado and chives. Using a strainer add the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of taco seasoning and lightly dust the eggs with it. Refrigerate until serving.

Expert Tips

  • Kitchen scissors are great to have on hand. Besides snipping herbs, they are also good for cutting up chicken pieces and other kitchen tasks.
  • Cut a very thin slice off the bottom of each egg white half before filling to help the Mexican-style deviled eggs stay in place on the serving plate.
  • To finely dice avocado, cut in half and remove pit. Using large spoon, scoop flesh from skin. Place one half avocado cut side down on cutting board. Make horizontal cuts for desired thickness, then cut lengthwise into strips. Turn 90 degrees and cut again. Repeat with other half of avocado.
