How to make Deviled Eggs Without Mayo
To start, you’ll need to gather all the ingredients required for this recipe. These include hard-boiled eggs, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, paprika, and chives for garnish.
Once you have all your ingredients ready, the first step is to prepare the hard-boiled eggs. To do this, place the eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer the eggs for 10-12 minutes.
Once the eggs are done, remove the pan from the heat and carefully pour off the hot water. Rinse the eggs with cold water to cool them down quickly, then peel them and discard the shells.
Next, cut each egg in half lengthwise using a sharp knife. Gently remove the yolks from the egg halves and place them in a small mixing bowl.
Add the Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the egg yolks. Mix everything well until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Using a spoon or a piping bag fitted with a star tip, fill each egg white half with the egg yolk mixture, dividing it evenly among the eggs.
Sprinkle some paprika over the filled egg halves to add color and flavor, then garnish with chopped chives.

How to store Deviled Eggs Without Mayo
To store deviled eggs without mayo, follow these simple steps:
First, make sure the deviled eggs are completely cooled to room temperature.
Arrange the deviled eggs in a single layer in an airtight container. If you need to stack them, place a piece of wax paper or parchment paper between the layers.
Cover the container with a tight-fitting lid and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
It’s important to note that deviled eggs without mayo may not last as long as regular deviled eggs with mayo due to the absence of preservatives in the mayo.
Therefore, it’s essential to check the eggs for freshness before consuming them. If the eggs have an off smell or flavor, it’s best to discard them.
How to reheat Deviled Eggs Without Mayo
Deviled eggs can be enjoyed cold, but if you prefer to serve them warm, you can follow these simple steps to reheat them:
Take the deviled eggs out of the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes. Fill a saucepan with enough water to cover the bottom of the pan, then place a steamer basket or colander on top of the pan.
Arrange the eggs on the steamer basket or colander, making sure they are not touching each other. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover the pan with a lid. Steam for 1-2 minutes or until they are heated through.
Use tongs or a slotted spoon to remove the deviled eggs from the steamer basket or colander and serve them warm.
It’s important not to overcook the eggs as they may become rubbery or dry. Be sure to check them frequently to ensure they are heated through but still moist and tender.
