Pimento Cheese Deviled Eggs

Have you been wondering what to do with all those hard boiled eggs you dyed for Easter? I don’t like hard boiled eggs, but Mr. RCGG does so I make them for him. I made pimento cheese deviled eggs for him last week and they were really easy!

What you need:
eggs (I usually do six because you will be cutting them in half)
mayo
mustard
pimento cheese
lemon juice
(all measurements are to your preferences. I use two spoonfuls of mayo, a splash of lemon juice, and about a tablespoon of mustard. The pimento cheese was added to taste.)

First, cook your eggs. I usually put the eggs in a pot with water and then bring them to a boil. After the water is boiling, I let them boil for about 5 minutes. Then I take them off the heat and put a lid on the pot. I let them sit for about 10 minutes.
HOWEVER, when I cooked the eggs this time, I put them in the air fryer. I cooked them at 350 degrees for 16 minutes! There was no waiting for them to boil or sitting them aside. I just put them in the air fryer, set the temp and time, and let the fryer cook them!

So the next thing you need to do is to peel them. I drain the water from the pot (if I cooked them in water) and then run them under cold water to peel them. Even using the air fryer I ran the eggs under cold water while peeling them. It is still easier to peel them under the water! =)

Cut your eggs in half and scoop out the yolks with a spoon. One of my eggs had a double yolk and it was kind of cool to see! I had never seen that before! Mash the yolks with a fork and then add the mayo, lemon juice, and mustard stirring until smooth. Add the pimento cheese to your tastes and mix well.

Spoon the yolk mixture into the halved eggs. You can also spoon the yolk mixture into a baggie and snip the tip off to pipe the yolk into the eggs.

There are so many variations of deviled eggs. Sometimes I put hot sauce into the yolks! That’s one of Mr. RCGG’s favorites.

What are some of your favorite things to do with hard boiled eggs?
