Among the countless ways to cook stuffed eggs, the one we propose below, with a filling of avocado and smoked salmon, is one of the easiest to make and the result is very eye-catching.
To make this recipe, you'll only need avocado, mayonnaise, and smoked salmon, in addition to the eggs, which you'll boil first. The filling is as simple as blending the avocado with the mayonnaise, lime juice, and egg yolks. In our case, we opted to use a food processor to blend these ingredients and then filled the boiled egg whites with this mixture using a piping bag. This way, with a simple garnish of chives and paprika, we've created a very attractive dish.
This is a versatile recipe that works equally well for a set menu meal or a special occasion. It can be enjoyed as a starter, or, served with a hearty salad, it becomes a wonderful main course.

Ingredients for the avocado and salmon stuffed eggs
- 4 eggs
- 2 avocados
- 1 lime
- 3 tablespoons of mayonnaise
- 250g of smoked salmon
- Chives (optional for garnish)
- Sweet paprika (optional for garnish)
How to make stuffed eggs with avocado and salmon
First, we're going to boil 4 eggs. To do this, place them in a pot of cold water and bring it to a boil over high heat. Boil the eggs for 10 minutes from the time the water starts boiling, stirring occasionally to ensure the yolks stay centered. Run the boiled eggs under cold water to stop the cooking process. Once cool, peel them, cut them in half, and remove the yolks. Set the egg whites aside in the refrigerator.
Place the egg yolks in a bowl along with the pulp of 2 avocados, the juice of 1 lime, and 3 tablespoons of mayonnaise. Mash these ingredients or blend them in a food processor until you have a smooth mixture.
Transfer the mixture to a piping bag and refrigerate until chilled. If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a freezer bag by snipping off one corner. Alternatively, you can simply use a spoon to fill the egg cups with the filling.
We chop 250g of smoked salmon, reserving some larger pieces for decoration.
We add the chopped salmon inside the egg whites.
We cover the smoked salmon inside the egg whites with the avocado filling, using a piping bag.
We decorate the stuffed eggs with the reserved larger pieces of salmon. Optionally, we can garnish these stuffed eggs with sweet paprika and chives. We serve them cold.
