Equipment
- Large open star tip (Wilton 1M) or Ateco 828
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice freshly squeezed
- ½ large avocado ripe
- Salt & pepper to taste
- crushed red pepper flakes or red pepper pieces
- 1 large yellow bell pepper
Instructions
- Hard-cook eggs according to your preferred method. (See recipe notes for a link to my foolproof Instant Pot and stovetop instructions.)
- When the eggs have cooled enough to handle, peel them carefully and slice in half lengthwise.
- Scoop yolks into a bowl and mash with mayo, mustard, lemon juice, and avocado until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Pipe the egg yolk mixture back into the egg whites, creating a tall swirl to resemble a tree shape. Sprinkle crushed red pepper flakes over the filling, or place tiny red pepper pieces or pomegranate seeds on the filling as ornaments.
- Use a 1-inch star-shaped cookie cutter to cut 12 stars from the yellow bell pepper. Place a star at the top of each egg "tree."
