Pimento Cheese Deviled Egg Recipe featured image below

Ingredients

  • 10 hard-boiled eggs peeled
  • 3 tablespoons cream cheese
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup pimento cheese, shredded
  • 1/4 cup Monterey Jack cheese shredded
  • 2 tablespoons pimento peppers diced
  • 1 teaspoon hot sauce
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon chives, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon parsley chopped
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions

  • Use a sharp knife to slice the peeled eggs in half, lengthwise.
  • Carefully scoop the yolks out of the egg white and place them into the bowl of a blender. Then arrange the whites onto a plate.
  • Add the rest of the ingredients into the bowl of the blender along with the egg yolks. Blend until smooth.
  • Scoop the yolk mix into a piping bag.
  • Pipe the yolk mix into the egg whites and decorate with the rest of the paprika.

Tips & Notes:

  • Serve chilled. The time spent in the fridge will make the eggs easier to handle and allow the flavors to meld.
  • Save some pimento peppers and use them as garnish, setting one atop each egg.
  • If you aren't bothered about the refined appearance the piping bag can provide, roughly mash your mix with a fork, leaving chunks of the cheese and pepper present. The change in texture might be appreciated.
