| Deviled Eggs Recipe |
- 12 hard-boiled eggs
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise (or to your preference)
- 2 teaspoons mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- pinch of pepper, optional
- paprika
- optional green onions, red bell peppers, or any other pretty garnish
- Peel eggs.
- Cut the eggs in half lengthwise.
- Remove the yolks to a bowl and break them apart with a fork.
- Add mayonnaise one spoonful at a time until you’ve reached your desired moisture level. Add mustard and salt to taste.
- Combine until smooth or the texture of your choice.
- Spoon or pipe into the egg white hollows.
- Sprinkle with paprika, or top with red peppers or green onions if desired.
Wipe the knife after cutting each egg to keep the whites clean.
Cool eggs are easier to slice cleanly than warm eggs.
If desired, spoon the filling into a plastic bag, seal, and snip the
corner off. Squeeze the bag to pipe the filling into the eggs.
If you mess up some of the eggs while peeling, throw them in with the yolks to mash into filling.

Thanks for the tip! I was thinking about making some for Monday:)
Quoting PuppetDani:I also use just mayo, mustard and just a slight bit of ketchup gives them a little kick.
LOL I just made some yesterday! Dh likes them plain and simple. I would like to try different kinds but I never do.
They're pretty good....I grew up eating them....my mother made them often...
Quoting goddess99:Never had deviled eggs.
Yum! Does it make the filling sort of tangy?
Quoting crazymomof4787:I use vinegar, mayo and yellow mustard to make my deviled eggs.
Do you EAT food your not suppose to?
