Ingredients
Instructions

10 hard-boiled eggs, peeled 1 ripe, Fresh California Avocados, seeded and peeled 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, packed 1/4 cup Greek yogurt (0% fat works well) 2 1/2 tsp. fresh lemon juice 2 Tbsp. purchased hummus 1/2 tsp. salt 1/8 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

Cut the hard boiled eggs in half with a sharp knife (this will ensure nice even edges). Separate the yolks and whites. Place the white halves on a work surface.
Place the yolks in the bowl of a food processor and pulse on and off 8-10 times. Add the remaining ingredients and process till smooth, about 1 minute, scraping down the bowl half way through.
Scoop the filling with a spoon or fit a pastry bag with a large star tip and pipe the filling into the egg white halves.
Transfer eggs to a serving platter and serve immediately or cover lightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use. (Can be made 2-3 hours in advance.)

*Large avocados are recommended for this recipe. A large avocado averages about 8 ounces. If using smaller or larger size avocados adjust the quantity accordingly.
