Deviled Eggs 3 Ways: Elevate Your Holiday Appetizer Game

Deviled eggs are a timeless holiday appetizer that never goes out of style. They’re versatile, easy to customize, and a fantastic way to showcase your culinary creativity. 

• 6 large eggs
• ¼ cup mayonnaise
• 1-2 tablespoons St. Elmo Prepared Horseradish (adjust to your spice preference)
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard
• Salt and pepper, to taste

Hard Boil the Eggs: Place the eggs in a pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover and remove from heat. Let sit for 12-14 minutes, then transfer to an ice bath to cool. 

Prepare the Filling: Halve the cooled eggs lengthwise and scoop the yolks into a medium bowl. Add mayonnaise, horseradish, Dijon mustard, and season with salt and pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy. 

Fill the Eggs: Use a spoon or piping bag to fill the egg whites with the yolk mixture.

Elevate your deviled eggs with unique and flavorful garnishes. Here are three creative ideas to inspire you: 

Preparation: Bake bacon for a perfect crunch! Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, arrange bacon slices, and bake for 10-20 minutes until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel to drain excess fat, then chop into small pieces.

Garnish: Place crispy bacon and sprinkle paprika on top of each egg for a savory finish. 

Preparation: Choose your favorite potato chips—wavy or kettle-cooked work best for added texture.

Garnish: Chop the chips into small squares and place a sprig of fresh dill in front of each one to add a delightful crunch and fresh flavor.

Preparation: Slice mini cucumbers into thin rounds.

Garnish: Place a cucumber slice atop each egg, and finish with a sprinkle of paprika for a vibrant touch.

These deviled eggs are sure to be a hit at your holiday gatherings! Experiment with different garnishes and fillings to find your perfect combination. Whether you stick with the classics or get adventurous, your guests will appreciate the twist on a beloved appetizer.
