Dill Deviled Eggs

There are a lot of deviled egg recipes out there, so you may be wondering, "does the internet really need another deviled egg recipe?" My answer is a resounding "YES!" -the internet needs this devilled egg recipe! 

I had no idea what the secret ingredient was in these deviled eggs; I just knew they were AMAZING! And when my aunt finally gave me the recipe, I thought, "it's DILL!" ~ And yes, it was dill but that's not all; there was also another secret ingredient that made them so darn delicious! These Dill Deviled Eggs have the perfect balance of dill, yet aren't too 'dilly, ' if you know what I mean? They are Weight Watchers friendly @ 1 WW point per serving on the blue plan and gluten-free!

But it made perfect sense there was dill in them. I frickin' love dill! Maybe it's the Ukrainian in me (Ukrainian's tend to cook with a lot of dill), but even my favorite Chili's secret ingredient is dill!

💭 Top tip

However, you need to be careful with dill- you can overdo it. I tried to add a little more dill to this recipe and it just did not work. You really can get too much of a good thing, especially when it comes to herbs. So even if you LOVE dill, don't add extra to this recipe! 

When I told my kids that Auntie Leanne wrote down her recipe and gave it to me so I could post it AND I was making it as a part of our New Year's finger food appetizer buffet, they were sooo excited!  But when my daughter said, "I can't wait to try them!" I was really surprised and confused. Apparently she had never actually tried one because they were so popular at our family gatherings, that by the time she got to them, they were all gone! I've got good reason to believe that this simple recipe will become your new favorite too!

📖 Variations

This is a different devilled eggs recipe- it's not your typical. And that's because it has a couple of special ingredients that make it unique. My Banh Mi Devilled Eggs are also a unique devilled eggs recipe. And if you like it a little spicy, then these ones are for you! You'll be amazed at how well the flavors meld.

TWO DAYS: They should be consumed within two days, which is generally considered the maximum amount of time deviled eggs remain safe to eat when stored in the refrigerator. And because eggs are perishable, they should be kept chilled at all times. Once prepared, store them in the fridge right away. You can make them in advance, but if I'm making them for others, I'm only making them the day before, at most. They taste best fresh! Although, I admit I have pushed that 2 day limit just a little, especially when I make them. I just can't bear to see devilled eggs go to waste! 

 

Like I said, I'm pretty particular when it comes to deviled eggs and these are amazing! You can thank the dill for that... oh and one more thing....

🥘 Ingredients

The other secret ingredient is Ranch dressing! I was surprised Auntie Leanne also put ranch dressing in her dill devilled egg recipe. And does it ever work! So, if you're looking for an appetizer that you won't be able to resist, then give these a try.
