Ingredients
Egg Ingredients
- 6 large large eggs
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard Can substitute with regular mustard
- to taste salt and pepper
Decoration Ingredients
- black olives For decoration, cut in half to resemble eyeballs.
- red food coloring Optional, for added spookiness.
Instructions
Preparation
- Boil the Eggs: Start by placing the eggs in a saucepan and covering them with water. Bring the water to a boil, cover the pot, and then turn off the heat. Let them sit for about 12 minutes.
- Peel the Eggs: Once cool, peel those eggs under some cold running water.
- Slice and Scoop: Cut the eggs in half lengthwise. Gently pop out the yolks and place them in a mixing bowl.
- Mix it Up: To the yolks, add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper. Mix until well blended.
- Fill the Eggs: Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg whites.
- Make it Spooky: Cut the black olives in half and place them on top of the yolks to resemble creepy eyeballs. Optionally, dip the olives in red food coloring.
- Chill and Serve: Refrigerate the deviled eggs for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Notes
Use older eggs for easier peeling. Consider adding tiny pieces of peppercorns or a drizzle of sriracha for an extra creepy factor. For a lighter twist, substitute mayonnaise with Greek yogurt.
