Deviled Eggs for Cinco de Mayo

Deviled Eggs with a Mexican twist. 
I like deviled eggs, and I was inspired to make these today by Lisa Prince's recipe on WRAL. 
Ready to remove the yolks. 

I halved the eggs and put the yolks in a plastic bag so they could be mashed along with about a cup of guacamole, some Mayo, some sour cream and a bit of hot sauce.  I had never thought of mashing the yolks this way, but it works wonderfully.  Salt and pepper were added to taste.
Everything all smashed together.  Easy. 

Piping the mixture into the egg halves. 
After snipping a small hole in the corner of the plastic bag, it was easy to pipe the mixture into the egg halves. 
Ready for Cinco de Mayo. 
For some of the eggs, I added a dollop of salsa.  Salsa in the middle of the dish with chips and a bowl of chips on the side, and this is ready for tomorrow.

I couldn't wait to try the eggs so I added a few to my lunch today.  I have enough of the mixture to have Guacamole Eggs on toast for breakfast tomorrow.
My lunch today.

Smoked Salmon Deviled Eggs

Smoked salmon deviled eggs.
The other morning when Gabi and Martin came for breakfast, I made smoked salmon deviled eggs and served them with smoked salmon.  I like to try different recipes for deviled eggs, and I found this one on Judy's blog Judy's Kitchen.

Here's the recipe:

INGREDIENTS:
8 large eggs
1/4 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
3 Tbsp. Philadelphia 1/3 Less Fat Soft Cream Cheese
2 Tbsp. lite mayonnaise
1 Tbsp. freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 Tbsp. minced fresh chives, plus extra for garnish
2 oz. smoked salmon, minced + about another 1-1/2 oz. for garnish
1/2 tsp. Diamond kosher salt + 1/8 tsp. for egg whites
1/8 tsp. smoked paprika (or up to 1/8 tsp. more, depending on your taste)
1/4 tsp. white pepper (or black, if preferred)Optional additional garnish:  capers ( I garnished with chives.)

In a pot that will hold the eggs in a single layer, cover eggs with 1 inch of cold water.  Bring to a full boil over high heat; cover; off heat; let eggs stand for 13 minutes.  Drain eggs; set aside to cool.

Peel eggs and slice in half lengthwise.  Carefully remove yolks.  Set yolks in small food processor; set whites, cut sides up, on an egg dish or platter.  Sprinkle whites lightly with
1/8 tsp. salt; set aside. 

Add yogurt, cream cheese, mayo, lemon juice, 1 Tbsp. chives, 2 oz. salmon, 1/2 tsp. salt, smoked paprika and pepper to mini food processor; pulse till smooth and well combined.  Taste to adjust seasonings, adding more paprika, salt or pepper if needed.
Some of the ingredients.

Mix in food processor.

Eggs and smoked salmon for breakfast.
These were different, tasty and great served with smoked salmon.
