Spice up every day Deviled Eggs, and make my delicious and easy recipe for Shrimp Creole Deviled Eggs. Sure to be a new family favorite!
Can you believe that Easter is right around the corner? What do you do when you have an excess of hard boiled eggs? Make deviled eggs of course. I’m excited to share three kicked-up deviled egg recipes with you this week. To start off the week, I’m sharing with you my recipe for Shrimp Creole Deviled Eggs.
Ingredients:
- Hard Boiled Eggs
- Mayonnaise
- Dijon Mustard
- Creole or Cajun Seasoning
- Red Wine Vinegar
- Radish
- Shrimp
- Dried Onion Flakes
- Fresh Dill
- Paprika
The special seasoning to this recipe is the Creole Spiced Deviled Egg Seasoning Mix (found at World Market). The mix allows you to do 6 dozen eggs–so it’s not a one-time use mix, which I really like. But don’t worry. If you can’t find this mix in stores you can always use my recipe for Homemade Cajun seasoning.
If you’ve never boiled hard boil eggs before, my friend Kristen has a great tutorial on how to do just that. You can boil the eggs specifically for this recipe or use up leftover dyed Easter eggs. Although, I’ll preface that it’s much more difficult to peel a perfect egg once it’s sat for a day or two.
Pro tip: If you use dyed eggs the whites might not be white depending on the color you dye the eggs!
Directions
- Peel and halve hard-boiled eggs lengthwise.
- In a bowl, mash the yolks. Stir in the mayonnaise, dijon mustard, seasoning mix, red wine vinegar, radishes, minced shrimp, dried onion flakes, and fresh dill. Using a hand mixer, beat until smooth and creamy.
- Place the mixture into a ziplock bag. Cut the corner on one of the sides of the bag, pipe the mixture into each of the halved egg whites. Top with one tiny shrimp, and a sprig of dill. Sprinkle paprika on top and enjoy immediately.
How to pipe devil egg filling
I always like to pipe in the filling, I find its a little less messier then scooping in the filling with a spoon.
You can use a piping bag or a ziplock bag. No need to add a tip (although a piping tip makes it look much more polished and professional).
Just remember, when using the piping bags (or ziplock bag) you need to cut a large enough slit in the plastic bag. Remember, when your pipe the filling this mixture is thicker since it has minced radishes and shrimp. You won’t be able to pipe the yolk mixture through a tiny opening.
