Stuff the egg halves with the egg yolk mixture. If you’d like them to look pretty, pipe them into the egg through an icing bag tip. You’ll need to use a wide tip so the chunky stuff doesn’t get stuck. Sprinkle the eggs with paprika.
 
Chill, covered, in the refrigerator until serving.

What’s the best way to make hard-boiled eggs?

The absolute best way to make hard-boiled eggs is to use the Instant Pot. If you have an Instant Pot, follow directions for making Instant Pot Hard Boiled Eggs. I never make them any way anymore because they turn out so perfect. The shells slip off nicely, and the shells don’t stick to the egg!

Alternately, you can make hard boiled eggs on the stove. Place eggs in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring the water to a boil and immediately remove from heat. Cover and let the eggs stand in hot water for 15 minutes. Remove from the hot water, cool and peel.

    Lemme hep you out with your deviled eggs—mayo, a little spicy mustard, pickle relish(preferably Wickles), a little of the pickle juice. Mix well and fill egg white shells (piping bags are helpful with this). Sprinkle with a little paprika. Can add sliced olive or parsley sprig for decoration. A little onion is ok, but will become really strong in a short time.
