Notes

Avocado oil is a much healthier option for mayo, but you can also use store-bought mayo. Just try to find one made with healthy unrefined non-GMO oils like avocado or olive oil.
Use a gallon-sized zip-lock bag with one corner snipped off as a piping bag to easily pipe the egg yolk filling into the halved egg whites.
My favorite way to make hard-boiled eggs, especially farm-fresh eggs, is in the Instant Pot. Making them in the Instant Pot is my foolproof method of easy peel eggs.
I find that slightly older eggs are easier to peel after they have been hard-boiled than fresher eggs.
Mix things up by swapping out regular mustard for spicy brown or Dijon mustard. Try ground red pepper in place of paprika for a spicier bite, or even add a touch of hot sauce to your egg yolk mixture. Add fresh herbs like chopped dill or parsley for added color in the filling, or garnish with chopped green onions. Add texture with finely chopped celery, pickles (sweet, spicy, or dill), or minced onion. There are so many ways to adjust these to your preference!
