Hello. My grandma loves my deviled eggs for any holiday occasion and would love these! My only question is about the avocado? Will it turn brown while chilling in the refrigerator for four hours? I was thinking that it might and not adding the avocado until I was ready to serve them if so. What are your thoughts??
Hi Donika, If you’re worried about the avocado turning brown then I think waiting is a great alternative.
