Deviled Eggs: Devilishly Easy

Deviled Eggs are always a hit at any party. They're easy to make and lots of fun to eat. Here is a quick recipe to help you egg it up at your next party.



Deviled Eggs:
makes 48

Place 24 eggs in a bowl of water and bring to a boil. Allow to boil for about 10 minutes and then turn burner off. Leave eggs in water until water has cooled a bit. Drain eggs and sit.

When the eggs are cool to the touch, peel shells of the eggs and discard. Egg shells are great for the compost pile or can also be used to sharpen blades in your garbage disposal. If you have neither of these just discard.


Check out this guy, its a twin!

Cut hard boiled eggs in half. Scoop out the yolks and place in mixing bowl. With a blender mix into the eggs:
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup honey mustard
  • 1/4 cup spicy mustard
  • 2 tsp of paprika
  • 1-2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp horseradish

Egg yolk filling in my mixer.

These measurements are approximated. Taste the filling as you go along. If you like it more spicy, add more paprika or hot sauce. Make sure your filling is nice and smooth with no lumps.


Decorative tip on my pastry bag makes the filling so attractive!

I like to use a pastry bag with a decorative tip to add filling to the egg whites, but you can just spoon it in. Once the egg whites are filled, you can garnish with paprika, olives, capers or whatever you wish.

And you're done. Eat up!
