Cilantro Lime Deviled Eggs

These deviled eggs are anything but ordinary, featuring a bright cilantro lime twist that will have everyone at the table asking for the recipe. Plus, they’re healthy and paleo-friendly, so you can indulge without the guilt…because who says you can’t have your egg and eat it too?

Cilantro Lime Deviled EggsHere are the ingredients you’ll need to whip up these delightful morsels:

  • 6 large hard-boiled eggs
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt for a lighter option)
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1 lime, zested
  • ¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Sliced jalapeños for garnish (optional, if you’re feeling spicy!)

Now, let’s get down to the nitty-gritty of how to bring these delightful little devils to life:

  1. First things first, peel those hard-boiled eggs! Try not to get too carried away and end up with egg debris sprinkled around your kitchen like confetti. A clean workspace is a happy workspace!
  2. Cut the eggs in half lengthwise and gently scoop out the yolks into a mixing bowl. The whites are our vessels for deliciousness, so treat them with care!
  3. Add the mayonnaise (or yogurt), Dijon mustard, lime juice, lime zest, cilantro, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper to the bowl with the yolks.
  4. Using a fork (or a fancy mixer if you want to elevate your deviled egg game), mash and mix everything together until creamy and well combined. Think of it as a workout for your arm, but way more fun!
  5. Now comes the enjoyable part: fill each egg white half with your scrumptious mixture. You can use a spoon, or for extra pizzazz, a piping bag if you’re feeling fancy.
  6. Top with a slice of jalapeño if you want to add some heat, and sprinkle a bit more cilantro on top for that chef’s touch.
  7. Chill them in the fridge for about 20-30 minutes. Trust me, they’ll taste better when they’ve had a little time to cool off and let those flavors mingle.

And there you have it! Your Cilantro Lime Deviled Eggs are ready to dazzle and delight your family and friends. Just remember to not eat them all before the guests arrive. Enjoy!
