A quick and festive deviled egg recipe featuring creamy filling with Dijon mustard, smoked paprika, fresh blueberries, and cherry tomatoes for a patriotic red, white, and blue presentation. Perfect for summer gatherings and easy to prepare.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 large eggs, hard-boiled and peeled
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon white vinegar
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Smoked paprika, for garnish
  • Fresh chives, finely chopped
  • Fresh blueberries
  • Cherry tomatoes, halved or quartered
  • Optional: fresh parsley or dill for garnish

Instructions

  1. Place 12 large eggs in a single layer in a large pot and cover with cold water by about an inch. Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
  2. Remove the pot from heat and cover with a lid. Let the eggs sit for exactly 12 minutes.
  3. Transfer the eggs to an ice bath or cold water to stop cooking and make peeling easier. Let chill for at least 10 minutes.
  4. Gently tap each egg on the counter, then roll to crack the shell. Peel under running water if needed.
  5. Slice the eggs in half lengthwise. Scoop out yolks into a mixing bowl.
  6. Mash the yolks with 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon white vinegar, and a pinch of salt and pepper until smooth and creamy.
  7. Fill each egg white half with the yolk mixture using a piping bag or spoon, forming a neat mound.
  8. Sprinkle smoked paprika over the filled eggs. Add fresh blueberries and halved cherry tomatoes around the platter.
  9. Finish with a light sprinkle of chopped chives and optional parsley or dill.
  10. Refrigerate the platter for at least 20 minutes before serving.

Notes

Do not overcook eggs to avoid crumbly yolks. Use an egg timer for best results. Adding a teaspoon of baking soda to boiling water can help with peeling. If filling is too thick, add a splash of milk or more mayo. Taste filling before piping to balance flavors. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Best served chilled.
