Make the filling. Cut each egg in half lengthwise. Carefully remove the yolks and place them inside a food processor (Note 4). Add avocados (2), lime juice (3 tablespoons), minced garlic (2 cloves), minced jalapeno (1/2 deseeded), cayenne pepper (1/2 teaspoon), and salt (1 teaspoon) and process until creamy smooth. Be sure to pause the processor occasionally to clean off the sides to ensure everything incorporates. Add cilantro (1/4 cup), and pulse a few times. Taste the filling and adjust to your liking (Note 3).

Fill the eggs. Use a spoon, baggie (with a small hole in the tip, see video), or a piping bag to add filling to the center of each egg white. Sprinkle the top of your eggs with additional cilantro and cayenne pepper. Serve immediately (Note and enjoy!
