Welcome to the season of the deviled egg! Our family just dyed a dozen Easter eggs and now I’m officially in the “what do I do with them NOW?!” phase. Deviled eggs to the rescue!
Usually, I just throw together my deviled eggs all willy nilly like, no recipe in sight. Peel, cut in half, mix the yolk with some mayo, mustard, salt, and pepper, and pipe that filling back into the egg. Done.
(Yawn.)
So this Easter, I thought I’d seek out a few creative deviled egg recipes from my fellow blogging friends. As usual, I asked a few food bloggers for their own favorite deviled egg recipes, and I also searched high and low for the most creative and deliciously different deviled egg recipes around.
The only problem now? Picking just one to try! Read on for the recipes …
French Onion Dip Deviled Eggs from Homemade in the Kitchen (pictured above) – Caramelized onions?! Yesss.
Southwest Deviled Eggs from Lemons for Lulu – Cumin, tomato, lime, and jalapeno give these loads of pep and personality.
Buffalo Ranch Deviled Eggs from Plaid and Paleo – Buffalo sauce, ranch seasoning, and (bonus!) naturally dyed a beautiful shade of red. Gorgeous AND delicious.
Green Olive Deviled Eggs from Kalyn’s Kitchen – Green olives, capers, and Dijon. Oh my.
Hummus Deviled Eggs with Za’atar from The Lemon Bowl – What a great healthy spin. Hummus makes everything better!
BLT Deviled Eggs from Around My Family Table – Bacon and tomatoes finely chopped into the filling, and a cute little arugula leaf to top them off.
Deviled Eggs for Easter & Spring from The Little Kitchen – Food dye lends pretty pastels to these colorful deviled eggs. Definite eye-catcher territory!

Smoked Salmon Deviled Eggs from Wonky Wonderful – Sort of like bagels and lox, but without the lox. And with eggs instead. So not really like it, I suppose, but still very creative!

Soy Sriracha Deviled Eggs from Nutmeg Nanny – Marinating the eggs in soy gives them incredible flavor and rich color; plus, hi, Sriracha.

Smoky Deviled Eggs from A Couple Cooks – Sun-dried tomatoes and smoked paprika. Enough said.
Deviled Eggs 3 Ways from A Beautiful Mess – One simple recipe with a few tweaks that elevate.
