EVERY time I make deviled eggs for a group there is ALWAYS at least one person who asks for the recipe. They really are so good.

The problem.

There is only one problem. When I used to make these there wouldn’t be enough. I would usually make them for an event or get together… not just for my family.  Our egg container holds 24 eggs so I would make 24 deviled eggs to fill the container. As I cooked them my kids would get really excited and I would tell them they couldn’t eat them until we get to where we are going, and then when we got to where we are going all of the eggs would get eaten up in a jiffy and our kids would only get one.

The solution to the problem.

The obvious solution to not having enough, of course… Make more. I double the recipe. I hard boil 18-24 eggs now instead of 12. Then I double the other ingredients (or do 1-1/2 of the other ingredients when making 18). The other nice thing about doing it that way is if a couple of eggs don’t peel well I have back up.  Problem solved! Crisis averted. 🙂

By the way, if you want a fool proof way to make hard boiled eggs that peel perfect every time, you will definitely want to follow the instructions for making them in your Instant Pot here.

Hope you love these deviled eggs as much as we do!

What you need to make these eggcellent (I had to do it) deviled eggs:

12 hard boiled eggs
1 tablespoon fat-free milk
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup light mayonnaise
Paprika

Here is what you do:

Hard-boil your eggs and peel off the shells.
Cut eggs in half, vertically.

Take the yolk out of each egg and put all the yolks in a medium mixing bowl. Set the egg white halves aside.

With a beater mix milk, cider vinegar, sugar and mayo with the egg yolks.

Continue to mix with stand or hand mixer about 2 minutes, to create a fluffy filling.

Spoon 1 tablespoon filling back into each egg white half.
For a less messy version: Use a zip close bag w/ the corner cut off, to pipe filling into the egg white.

Sprinkle top of eggs with paprika.

Refrigerate until time to serve.

Makes 24 deviled eggs.
Two deviled eggs is one serving.
One serving is just 1 Weight Watcher FreeStyle Smart Points.

Adorable Chick Eggs

How cute are those chick deviled eggs? The picture above is from Delish.com, but there are about a million websites who make different variations of chick eggs.

Here is one simple way to make chicken eggs…

1. Sprig of flat parsley inserted into a small slit
2. Top third of an egg sliced crosswise
3. Capers
4. Two small bits of carrot
5. Bottom portion of the egg
6. Small round of the egg sliced from the bottom to keep the chick upright
7. Carrot coin with edges trimmed to resemble toes

2. Small sprigs of curly parsley
3. Two-thirds of an egg, sliced crosswise
4. Small round of the egg sliced from the bottom to keep the basket upright

My personal favorite…

One of my new favorites, though, comes from Hungry Happenings. Do you just love this idea, or what!? I absolutely adore these! Beth calls them, “Deviled Egg Daisies”. You dip the egg whites in the egg yolk mixture! So cute!
