Guacamole Cilantro Deviled Eggs



Hello Lovelies!

I think Spring is in the air!! Can I get a drum roll please?  Or a Whoop Whoop!?  That's awesome!!!!! I can hear it all the way from here.  I knew you'd be in the spirit.

Following a strict Paleo lifestyle can sometime be boring-I hate to say it, but if you don't have your creative thinking cap on-you may end up with the same breakfast every morning.  Usually I'll have a smoothie and some hard boiled eggs for protein, but ugh, hard boiled eggs can be bland.  I needed some pizazz, ya know?  Wanted to brighten up my life with taste.

The night before work I began to prepare…what do I have in my fridge that can compliment my eggs? I had recently seen a magazine article with different variations of deviled eggs, that was vague in my mind, and I really didn't feel like breaking out the food processor…

I had Cilantro, my Goodie herb of the week.  I had Avocados (something I could never live without).  Sea Salt and Black Pepper are staples that I would always have…And I had bought a lemon last week while grocery shopping.  Perfect!  Cilantro Guacamole!!

Homemade Guacamole always saves the day, and always adds some pizazz to any dish.  And it's so easy to make!!  And it certainly does not compare to store bought in any way shape or form.  I often make homemade guacamole and I make different every time!  Don't have Cilantro?  Use Parsley!  Don't have fresh herbs?  Use dried!  Just know it's soooo much better fresh.

WHAT YOU NEED:
2 large eggs
1 avocado
Salt and Pepper to taste
1/4 slice of Lemon
Small handful of fresh Cilantro Leaves

DIRECTIONS:
Eggs:
Boil eggs on medium heat for about 15-20 minutes
Once cooked remove from heat and put in a pan of cold water to immediately cool
Cut each egg in half and place on a plate

Guacamole:
Cut avocado and spoon flesh into a bowl
Add the juice of 1/4-3/8 slice of lemon
Add a small handful of fresh Cilantro
Pinch of sea salt
Pinch of black pepper
Mash with spoon or fork
Spoon a dollop of guacamole onto each egg

Makes 4 egg halves, with guacamole leftovers.

 ADDITIONAL TIPS:
I like using Cage-free, no antibiotics, and Organic eggs
I usually buy non organic Avocados because they are in a shell and less likely to be harmed by nasty chemicals and fertilizers.
Organic herbs are the best and free of chemicals and fertilizers
With the amount of guacamole made, this could work on approximately 5 eggs cut in half and topped with Guacamole.

Enjoy! xx Julie

Not All Advil Is Gluten-Free!!!

After last night's POST , GF Advil was on my mind and I decided to call Advil/Pfizer this morning to get some more clarification.  In response to my post last night I advised through the website that Advil Liqui-gels, Advil Migraine and Advil Liqui-Gels PM contain a wheat derivative.  After my phone call with a lovely representative I received more information. - ALL ADVIL LIQUI-GELS contain a wheat derivative .   ALL LIQUI-GELS.  So stop these immediately if you are taking the Liqui-gels.  You maybe getting sick from a medication rather then a food and this is so important to recognize!  Just steer clear of Liqui-Gels. -ALL FORMS OF ADVIL MIGRAINE contain gluten .  There is no further information if it is just the Liqui-Gels or the Tablets, Caplets and Gel-Caps.  Pfizer does not have this info therefore they informed me to steer clear of all Advil Migraine pills. Here is what IS GLUTEN-FREE FROM ADVIL: All Advil Tablets, Gel...

Hot Chocolate Coffee

Sometimes I feel like there are days only chocolate would understand.  And following a strict Paleo diet does not allot for chocolate eating.  Especially chocolate with added dried cane sugar.  And especially in abundance.  Of course special occasions allot for this type of activity, but today is not that day. So how do you put a sock in your chocolate craving?  Well, simply remove your sock from your foot and put it in your chocolate.  I'm kidding!  Please use a clean sock! Kidding again!!… Often, chocolate cravings can get the best of us, so I created a delicious recipe to kick my craving and your craving.  It's delicious.  And it's perfect for the lover of coffee and chocolate.  Taking a sip of this sent signals of pure decadence to my brain. A lot of my readers often describe how tough it is to drink black coffee without sweetener, so this one is for you guys!!   This recipe is a total Brain Trick.  It tastes ...

Magnolia Bakery-Cream Cheese Frosting

Another amazing frosting recipe from Magnolia!  I swear by these recipes, this is my go-to book for icing when I bake!! 1 pound (two 8-ounce packages) cream cheese, softened and cut into small pieces 6 tbsp. unsalted butter, softened and cut into small pieces 1 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract 5 cups sifted confectioners' sugar In a large bowl, on the medium speed of an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth, about 3 minutes.  Add the vanilla and beat well.  Gradually add the sugar, 1 cup at a time, beating continuously until smooth and creamy.  Cover and refrigerate icing for 2-3 hours, but no longer, to thicken before using. Makes enough for one 2-or 3-layer 9-inch cake Enjoy! xoxo Julie www.goodiegoodiegluten-free.blogspot.com
