Holiday Party Deviled Eggs

12 large eggs, hard cooked
1 ripe avocado, peeled and diced
1 lime, zested and juiced
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
1 Tbsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground cayenne
1 Tbsp capers, finely chopped
1/2 tsp salt
finely chopped flat leaf parsley and paprika for garnish

Peel the eggs, then cut in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks to a bowl and set the whites on a nice platter or plate.
Add diced avocado, lime zest, and lime juice to the yolks and smash together with a fork or a pastry cutter.
When mixture is pretty smooth (you really don't want this to be chunky) add the mayo, mustard, cumin, cayenne, and capers, and mix together until smooth again.
Spoon this mixture into the egg white halves on the platter. Sprinkle the chopped parsley and paprika over each one for garnish and color.
Makes 24 appetizers.
