Tips & Tricks on how to make the perfect Deviled Eggs Dip Recipe:

• Use organic eggs, preferably from free range chickens, those eggs taste the best and will also have a more yellowish egg yolk.
• If you don’t have cream cheese on hand or if you prefer a more tangy taste to your dip you can use sour cream instead.
• If you decide to use sour cream please use full fat, if you want to cut on the calories and use fat free/reduced fat, please note that the dip will be more watery.
• Same applies to the mayo, I prefer to use organic, full fat mayo, if you decide to use reduced fat or fat free, please note that the dip will be more watery.
• You can skip the spicy red hot sauce if you don’t like spicy food, or you can add more if you prefer more heat.
• Do NOT skip the mustard and please use high quality mustard, the eggs are pretty plain in taste so the mustard is almost a predominant flavor in here.
• If you can’t find chives, I would suggest using green onions, a little green will add a pop of color and also some freshness to the appetizer.
• I kept the dip vegetarian, but a great mix in is bacon, just crumble a few cooked bacon strips into the dip and also top it with bacon crumbs, the result is delicious.
• Another great mix in suggestion is 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
• To make this even more fun you can add a bit of ranch powder mix and fresh dill.
• Since the dip is already rich, I recommend serving it with freshly cut crunchy veggies like cucumbers, carrots, celery, zucchini or broccoli florets.

Deviled Eggs Dip with paprika and chives is a great way to use leftover eggs. Creamy, just a bit spicy, this is an easy and delicious appetizer.

Ingredients

• 12 eggs
• ½ cup mayonnaise full fat and organic
• 4 ounces cream cheese full fat
• 2 tablespoon stone ground mustard
• 1 tablespoons white wine vinegar
• 1 tablespoon red hot sauce optional
• 1 teaspoon chives chopped

Garnish:

• ¼ teaspoon paprika or cayenne pepper
• 1 teaspoon chives chopped

Instructions

1. If you have leftover boiled eggs, peel them and separate the egg whites from the egg yolks.
2. If you need to boil your eggs, place them in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, boil for 2-3 minutes, after which remove saucepan from heat and let eggs cook in the hot water, using the residual heat for about 10-12 minutes. Pour off hot water and place eggs in a bowl full of ice water to cool.
3. Another method would be to boil the eggs for 7 minutes, after that place them under cold water to cool.
4. Peel and separate the eggs, add the egg yolks to a food processor.
5. Add the egg whites to a medium bowl. Add about ½ of the egg whites to the food processor, and finely chop the remaining egg whites and set aside back in the bowl.
6. Add mayonnaise, mustard, white wine vinegar, cream cheese and hot sauce to the food processor. Process until smooth and creamy.
7. Transfer mixture to the bowl with the chopped egg whites. Season with salt and pepper, add chopped chives and gently stir everything together.
8. Transfer to a dip serving bowl, sprinkle with paprika or if you prefer something more spicy you can use cayenne pepper.
9. Garnish with chopped chives and serve immediately.
10. If you want to serve the dip later, store it in an airtight container in the fridge or place in a serving dip bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Garnish with paprika and chives right before serving.
11. Enjoy!
