Deviled eggs
make a great appetizer for parties and gatherings.
Hard-boiled eggs are one of the best sources of nonmeat protein that you can get. While there are a lot of benefits to hard-boiled eggs, including their portability and ease of preparation, many people find the flavor of plain eggs boring. Deviling your eggs is one way to spice them up. Deviled eggs are simple enough to serve for lunch and elegant enough to bring as an appetizer to a party. Add this to my Recipe Box.
Instructions
1. Hard-boil the eggs and allow them to cool completely in the refrigerator.
2. Peel the eggs. Tap both sides of the egg on the counter, and then peel under running water. Removing the shells under running water helps to remove them without harming the egg whites.
3. Halve the eggs lengthwise. Scoop the yolks out and place them in a large bowl. Place the whites on a large plate and set aside.
4. Mash the yolks with a fork. Stir in the mayonnaise, pickle relish, vinegar and mustard. Add salt and pepper to taste. Stir until thoroughly combined.
5. Spoon the yolk mixture back into the halved egg whites. Sprinkle with paprika and serve. If you have leftovers, store covered in the refrigerator.
