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.
