A Personal Note

“Hey there, I’m Tyler! A while back, I hosted a laid-back BBQ for a few friends. I wanted to offer something keto-friendly that even my non-keto friends would grab without hesitation. I had hard-boiled eggs in the fridge, a ripe avocado that needed using, and figured—why not mash them together and spice things up a bit?

The result? These Keto Spicy Avocado Deviled Eggs—creamy, zesty, and gone in minutes. They’ve since become my go-to party snack (and lunchbox side dish). They’re proof that simple, beginner-friendly recipes can still impress.” – Tyler Brooks
