Zesty Salmon Jerky Deviled Egg Recipe
Jazz up traditional deviled eggs with the
addition of smoky salmon jerky, lime juice, and creamy avocado. This recipe can
be served as an appetizer or for a mid-afternoon snack to curb sugar cravings
and tide you over until dinner time. The filling is rich in omega fatty acids
which boosts the immune system and aids in inflammation.
The jerky adds an incredible aroma, depth in
flavor, and great texture. While the avocado tames its fiery flavor and takes
the place of mayonnaise. The filling also incorporates fresh herbs and spices
that harmonize with the rich yolk.
You can make the deviled eggs up to 3 days in
advance to enjoy later in the week for a healthy protein rich snack.
