Deviled Eggs with a twist

Who doesn't love deviled eggs?! I LOVE 'EM!

Unfortunately for this Rookie Chef, I can never leave a good thing alone. So this time I added tuna to our typical deviled egg recipe. They were tasty... but a little different. In a good way, but not in a "Oh my goodness I can't stop eating these!" kind of way.

Try it for yourself and decide :)

Ingredients:

  • 1 6-oz can of tuna (I used Solid White Albacore in Water. It's the only way to go!)
  • pinch of salt and ground black pepper
  • Dijon mustard (do this to taste... every is different)
  • 8 hard-boiled eggs, peeled
  • 3 tablespoons mayo (I used fat-free... but again, add mayo to taste)
  • Olives (optional)

Directions:

  • Drain tuna very well. Using a fork, break up any large pieces. Add salt, pepper and mustard
  • Cut each egg in half and use a spoon to remove the yolk. Mash the yolks well. Add tuna mixture and stir in mayo.
  • Spoon mixture into egg whites. Garnish with olives, if desired.

P.S. I tend to go a little paprika crazy when all is said and done. Feel free to leave this step out, but I highly recommend it!
