Christmas Deviled Eggs
A holiday twist on a classic, these little bites are packed with flavor and dressed up for the season. They’re perfect as a quick snack or festive appetizer.
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 3 tbsp mayonnaise sugar-free or avacado-based
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- ½ tsp white vinegar or lemon juice
- 1 pinch paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
Optional Garnishes
- Chopped fresh parsley
- Paprika or chili powder
Instructions
- Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and let simmer for 10 minutes.
- Drain the hot water and transfer the eggs to an ice bath. Let them cool completely before peeling.
- Peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthwise. Carefully remove the yolks and place them in a small bowl.
- Mash the yolks with a fork until smooth. Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, vinegar or lemon juice, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix until creamy and well-combined.
- Spoon the filling into a piping bag or ziplock bag with a small tip cut off. Pipe the yolk mixture into the hollowed egg whites.
- Sprinkle chopped parsley over the eggs for a festive green "garland" effect.
- Arrange the deviled eggs on a platter and sprinkle lightly with paprika or chili powder for extra flavor and color. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to enjoy.
