Hi, these look delicious.  Would you happen know the calories per egg half?  I have to eat healthier AND count calories.  Thank you!

Hi Wendy! One whole large egg white is about 17 calories, so 8.5 calories for the half of the white. Calculating the guacamole would depend on the type you use. If you use store-bought I would measure about 1 tablespoon then calculate accordingly. According to the UDSA Nutrient Data Laboratory, 1 tablespoons of avocado is only 2 calories. If you season that with just a bit of lemon juice and perhaps a dash of Tobasco you have a very low cal Guacamole Deviled Egg! I would say around 10-12 calories for just a half! Hope that helps :)
