The Best Deviled Eggs

8 ingredients
8 steps

Ingredients

  • 1 dozen hard-boiled egg, peeled
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped
  • 4 slices bacon, cooked and chopped (or use bacon bits)
  • 2 teaspoons dried tarragon
  • 12 teaspoon dried mustard
  • salt and pepper, to taste

Directions

  1. 1
    Slice bottom off each egg, exposing yolk.
  2. 2
    Cut a small sliver off pointed end of egg (top) to help it sit upright.
  3. 3
    Scoop out yolks into bowl.
  4. 4
    Arrange whites on serving tray, or place each in an individual egg cup, hole end facing up.
  5. 5
    In separate bowl, mash yolks and add remaining ingredients, then stir well to combine.
  6. 6
    Use a pastry bag-or plastic bag with bottom corner snipped off-to pipe mixture into each egg.
  7. 7
    Garnish with remaining chives.
  8. 8
    Switch up your ingredients: In lieu of chives, bacon, tarragon and mustard, add the following to your mayonnaise-and-egg mixture for an entirely different taste: 1 small avocado (mashed), 1/2 red onion (minced), 2 roma tomatoes (seeded & chopped), and/or 2 teaspoons cilantro, chopped.
