About

I'm creating and testing recipes this week that feature Avocados from Mexico. Avocados are a healthy treat for after school when children especially need something filling and nutritious.
Here is a hearty after school snack that I hope will put a smile on your kids faces. Avocado nests are filled with deviled eggs and sit on a bed of hash browns and bacon strips. I made these this afternoon when Marina and her friend Anya wanted an after pool snack. They both loved them and actually so did my husband.
I did not salt the deviled eggs because they would be eaten along with the bacon, but you may want to add a bit of salt to the hash browns and the eggs.
