    🍯 Why This Recipe Works

    1. They're easy to make. Deviled eggs are a very low maintenance appetizer, which is one of the reasons they're so popular. Cook the eggs, peel and slice, mix, and fill. Any "imperfectly peeled" eggs can be converted into Southern Egg Salad, so there's no waste.
    2. Basic ingredients. We don't need anything too extravagant to make these deviled eggs because simple ingredients like mayo, mustard, and relish are enough to give us a great flavor and creamy consistency.
    3. It's frugal. While the cost of eggs may vary, they're still considered one of the cheapest protein options. Packed with great nutrients and affordable, this recipe can feed several for a low cost. These are great way to Cut Your Grocery Bill and Still Eat Healthy.

    🥘 Ingredients

    ingredients needed to make southern deviled eggs.

    Ingredient Notes:

    Eggs- You will need some hard boiled eggs for these deviled eggs to work well. I recommend using my Instant Pot Hard Boiled Eggs recipe for foolproof eggs that peel perfectly every time.

    Mayonnaise- This is the base of the filling. It makes the yolk mix creamy in consistency.

    Mustard- Adding in some mustard will give us a tangy flavor and cut down on the mayo flavor.

    For specific ingredients and measurements, please see the recipe card below.

    🔪 Instructions for Dairy Free Deviled Eggs

    Step 1: Boil your eggs until they're hard boiled and then let them cool to safe handling temperatures.

    Step 2: Peel the shells from the egg whites and rinse under water to remove any small shell pieces.

    🍴 Recipe Tips

    1. More tangy, less sweet. For a tangier twist to your egg filling, swap out sweet relish for dill relish. It'll dial down the sweetness and amp up the dill flavor.
    2. Adjust as needed. Adjust the creaminess of your filling by adding a tad more mayo until it hits your preferred texture.
    3. Filling without a mess. When it comes to filling your egg whites, you've got options. You can go classic with a spoon or get fancy with a piping bag. Pro tip: Snip off the tip of a sandwich baggie for easy filling.
    4. Feeling extra fancy? Try using a star tip on a piping bag for some Instagram-worthy deviled eggs!
    5. Ugly eggs are still useful! And hey, if any of your boiled eggs didn't quite make the cut for deviled eggs, fear not! They'll make killer Southen Egg Salad Sandwiches later on. It's all about making the most out of those eggs!

    💭 Recipe FAQs

    How long is it safe to eat deviled eggs?

    Deviled eggs can be prepared and stored for 2 days. This means they can be made the day before an event and stored until the day after. For best results consume within 2 days.

    How do you hard boil eggs so they peel easily?

    Use older eggs that have been in the fridge for at least a week. Older eggs work better at easily peeling. Next, try the 5-5-5 method. Place eggs in a pot of water and bring it to a boil.
    Boil for 5 minutes and then let them sit there for 5 minutes. Then, place in an ice bath for 5 minutes before peeling. I also like to peel my eggs under gently running water because it helps separate that sticky membrane from the egg white.

    Can I freeze deviled eggs?

    It's never recommended to freeze deviled eggs. While it could technically be done, the flavors, textures, and appearances are all different and offputting.
