Don’t these eggs look like they should be wearing tutus? Fancy!! Just between me and you; they’re super easy to make. No additional cooking required. If you have way too many Easter eggs in your fridge, this stuffed eggs recipe is for you.

I hope you all had a wonderful Easter. We made way too much food and probably overate. I better dust off that elliptical machine! My 3-year-old niece helped decorate the eggs this year. Don’t you love the stickers? They add so much character!

I’m glad I took this unpeeled picture so you don’t think my eggs are diseased (a few of them are little green, and yellow and purple).

Ingredients for Stuffed Eggs:

8 eggs, hard boiled and peeled
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/2 to 1 tsp dijon mustard (grey poupon) or 1 tsp white wine vinegar
-I tested both and both were good. I used grey poupon dijon this time. Whoever thought of the name “poupon”? Very strange for a food product don’t you think? Maybe it was supposed to be hilarious.
Sprinkle of garlic powder, Salt and Pepper to taste
2 Tbsp chives, finely chopped
Paprika
Olive Oil

Two bottles one of dijon mustard and one of white wine vinegar

How to Make Stuffed/Dressed Eggs:

1. Peel all your pretty eggies, cut them in half and remove the yolks into a medium bowl.

2. Mash your egg yolks pretty well with a fork.

3. Mix in 1/4 cup Mayo, 1/2 to 1 tsp (or to taste) POUPON (ha ha) mustard, sprinkle in garlic powder, salt and pepper to taste

Mayo and seasoning added to a bowl with egg yolks Egg yolk mixture in a bowl

4. You can either put the mixture into the eggs with a spoon or use a pastry bag to make it real perdy. The Ateco Cake Decorating Set is what I used. It does the job and does it well.

5. Sprinkle tops with paprika, chopped chives and drizzle the final product with olive oil. Serve chilled.

What do you do with all your Easter eggs? Play egg war? Sprinkle some salt on them and call it good?

    Galey Farms,here in Victoria BC sells wonderful fresh eggs weekly. They told me that eggs at least two weeks old peel easily because the membrane inside the shell shrinks. They also told me that North America is the only place that eggs are refrigerated, they can be left out on a counter until used, in general.

      Hi Nataliya, I’m so glad you like our recipes :). A cookie would probably be a great choice. I have a couple of nut-free ones that are a good idea to keep it allergy friendly – what about the pryaniki or the rogaliki cookies?

      try a little of chili pepper or as long as you have the other ingredients, omitting the paprika won’t substantially affect the final product other than appearance. Hope this helps :).

    These look delicious! I was just wondering, is the olive oil for flavor? I’ve never had them with olive oil before.

    Thanks for all the fantastic recipes!!! This blog is a favorite in our house!!!

    I just saw the cutest deviled eggs, or stuffed as you call them. You must check this out. I had a face book friend who was showing off some she made for Easter. Some people are just so creative. Beau

    We call these devilled eggs–I love them! I thought your comment about “poupon” was hilarious! You are so right, it doesn’t sound good, does it? haha! The reason for the name is who created it: It was developed by Maurice Grey and Auguste Poupon in 1777 in Dijon, France. (Poupon is actually French for “babe in arms.”) So now we both know (I had to Google to find out-lol).

      Ha! I got carried away with that. Well that makes sense. Thanks for educating me on the history of Dijon Poupon 🙂

      Yes, deviled eggs around these parts too (upstate New York), and there are many delicious variations. I often add a little onion powder and some sweet pickle relish (or just juice from a jar of sweet gherkins). One of my neighbors brings them to the block party every year and tops each one with a little slice of green olive and pimiento – adds just the right amount of salty “pop” to the top of it.

      Thanks for calling these “dressed eggs,” it makes them sound fancy! And I’m going to pay more attention to dressing mine up in the future – they look so good with chopped greens.

    Poupon refers to the name of the maker, Auguste Poupon, and Maurice Grey who created the mustard in the region of Dijon in France.
