Tips & Tricks

  • If you are making deviled eggs for a crowd, make a few extra just in case the egg whites break apart or you need to adjust the texture of the filling.
  • Don’t overcook the eggs, once the water boils, cover the pan and turn the heat off. After 15 minutes, the eggs will be cooked through.
  • Add 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda to the water to raise the egg whites’ PH level, which will help prevent them from sticking to the shell.
  • For best results, place the eggs under cold running water or an ice bath to cool them off completely which will make them easier to peel.
  • Tap the egg on the bottom and then gently roll it on a countertop or tabletop with your palm; start peeling at the large end.

No mayo deviled egg filling variations

Besides Greek yogurt, there are many other fillings you can use for deviled eggs that don’t involve mayonnaise. Here are some suggestions:

Guacamole or Mashed Avocado– Mix a quarter cup of mashed avocado or guacamole in place of Greek yogurt for a creamy texture and rich flavor.

Sour Cream – Sour cream is tangy and is similar to Greek yogurt and will work as a replacement.

Hummus – Replace the yogurt with hummus for a savory kick.

Cream cheese– Replace yogurt with approximately 2 teaspoons of whipped cream cheese per egg.

Cottage Cheese – When blended smooth, cottage cheese is a milder alternative to Greek yogurt deviled eggs.

Creme Fraiche – Is thick and creamy similar to Greek yogurt, but is less tangy and make a delicious filling for deviled eggs.

This recipe is made with simple ingredients and can easily be adapted for more flavor. Try adding any of the following to the food processor with the egg yolk and yogurt mixture or any of the filling suggestions above.

Hot and spicy – 1 tablespoon of sriracha sauce and a sprinkle of paprika.

Hot and smokey – 1 tablespoon of your favorite hot sauce and sprinkle with smoked paprika.

Southern style – 1 tablespoon of sweet pickle relish and a splash of pickle juice.

Fresh herbs – For extra flavor add chopped fresh herbs to taste such as dill, tarragon, or parsley.

Pesto eggs –  1 1/2 tablespoons of your favorite pesto such as basil or arugula pesto.

Mexican style – 1 tablespoon salsa and chopped jalapeno, a pinch of garlic powder for spicy Mexican style.

Smokey eggs –  1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika and bacon crumbles.

Savory and hot – 1 teaspoon (more or less to taste) of horseradish.

Ranch deviled eggs– Add a teaspoon of ranch seasoning to the yolk mixture or use Greek yogurt ranch dressing.

Mayo version – If mayonnaise is your favorite way to enjoy deviled eggs, use mayo or use half mayonnaise and half yogurt.
