Smoked Salmon Deviled Eggs & Bacon & Smoked Gouda Deviled Eggs

My husband recently expressed a craving for Deviled Eggs. He says I have not made any in a very long time. And after thinking about that, I had to agree. So I decided to make two different kind: some with smoked salmon and some with bacon and smoked Gouda. These are so easy to make and taste so good, we have none left! LOL! Bring them to a party or serve as an appetizer before a nice dinner with friends. Let me know what you think!

Prep time for both recipes: 1 hr; serves 6

Ingredients:

Smoked Salmon mixture:

  • 4 large eggs, hard-boiled
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp. lemon juice
  • 1 tsp. Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 tsp. smoked paprika
  • 1/4 tsp. dry mustard
  • pepper
  • 1/4 cup smoked salmon, chopped
  • dried chives

Boil eggs for 6 minutes in a 2-qt. pot of water. Remove from heat and let sit for 10 minutes then place eggs in an a bowl of ice water so they can cool down. Peel, half each egg and transfer yolks to a small bowl. Add the mayonnaise, oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, smoked paprika and dry mustard. Season with pepper and stir vigorously with a small spatula until combined and smooth.

Transfer mixture to a piping bag and pipe mixture into egg whites. Top each egg with smoked salmon and sprinkle with the dried chives.

  • 1 tbsp. parsley, chopped

Boil eggs for 6 minutes in a 2-qt. pot of water. Remove from heat and let sit for 10 minutes then place eggs in an a bowl of ice water so they can cool down.
