Description
Say goodbye to drab, mayonnaise-y deviled eggs of decades past. Check out this very Southern spin on the potluck classic
Ingredients
- 8 Hard-Boiled Eggs, peeled & halved lengthwise
- 1/4 cup Mayonnaise
- 4 ounces Cream Cheese, softened
- 4 ounces Sharp Cheddar Cheese, shredded
- 1/4 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1/4 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon Onion Powder
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt
- 2 ounces jarred Diced Pimentos, drained
- Ground Black Pepper, for garnish
- Etra Diced Pimentos, for garnish
- Sliced Scallions, for garnish
Instructions
1. Remove yolks from eggs and place in a medium bowl. Add mayonnaise, cream cheese, cheddar, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, onion powder and salt. Mix until well combined (will not be perfectly smooth due to shredded cheese). Stir in 2 ounces diced pimentos.
2. Divide mixture amongst 16 egg halves and garnish with ground black pepper, extra pimentos and sliced scallions.
Notes
The deviled eggs themselves are one-bowl-mess-free easy. You know the drill: scoop out the yolks and mix with a little mayo and add in the ingredients for your very own version of pimento cheese. Scoop them back into the little egg halves and eat until stuffed.
