Ingredients

  • 1 California avocado peeled
  • 1 cup fresh basil loosely packed
  • 3 Tbsp basil pesto sauce
  • 1 Tbsp stone ground mustard
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt to taste
  • 6 eggs hard boiled

Instructions

  • Fill a pot with water and add the eggs. Bring to a full boil on the stove top and cook for 10 minutes. Immediately transfer to an ice bath and allow eggs to chill at least 10 minutes.
  • While you’re cooking or chilling your eggs, add the avocado, basil, pesto sauce, mustard, and sea salt to a food processor.
  • Peel the eggs. Slice them in half length-wise and scoop out the cooked yolks. Add the yolks to the food processor with the rest of the ingredients.
  • Process this mixture until it’s very creamy. You may need to stop your food processor a couple of times to scrape the sides with a rubber spatula to help it move along.
  • Fill the egg whites with the avocado pesto mixture, garnish with chives, and enjoy!
