serves/makes:
  
ready in:
  1-2 hrs

ingredients

6 hard boiled eggs, peeled
2 teaspoons dry ranch salad dressing mix
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
paprika

directions

Slice the hard-boiled eggs in half lengthwise. Scoop out the yellow yolks and place them in a bowl. Set the whites aside on a plate or serving platter.

Add the dry ranch dressing mix, mayonnaise, and mustard to the egg yolks and mash well to combine.

Pipe or spoon the ranch egg yolk filling into the egg white halves. Sprinkle each with a light dusting of paprika.

Place the ranch deviled eggs (covered with plastic wrap) in the fridge and chill for 1 hour (or overnight).

recipe tips


Try different types of mustard, such as whole grain or spicy brown.

For added crunch, consider topping the deviled eggs with a sprinkle of crushed potato chips or crispy fried onions.

If you prefer a creamier filling, gradually add more mayonnaise or Greek yogurt until you reach your desired consistency.

For a smoky flavor, mix a small amount of smoked paprika into the filling or use it as a garnish on top.

common recipe questions


Can I use prepared ranch salad dressing instead of the dry mix?

It will alter the flavor but you can use prepared ranch dressing in place of the dry mix and mayonnaise.

Can I use Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise?

Yes, Greek yogurt can be used as a healthier alternative to mayonnaise in this recipe. It will give a tangier flavor and slightly different texture.

How should I pipe the filling into the egg whites?

You can use a piping bag with a decorative tip for a more elegant presentation, or simply spoon the filling into the egg whites for a more rustic look.

Can I add additional ingredients to the filling?

You can alter the filling by adding ingredients like chopped pickles, bacon bits, chives, or even hot sauce.

How far in advance can I make ranch deviled eggs?

Ranch deviled eggs can be made up to 1 day in advance. Keep them covered and refrigerated until ready to serve.

Can I garnish the deviled eggs with anything else?

You can garnish the ranch deviled eggs with additional toppings like crispy bacon bits, chopped chives, or a sprinkle of shredded cheese.

How long can I store leftover deviled eggs?

Leftover deviled eggs can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Be sure to consume them within that time frame.

tools needed


Small Bowl: Use it to mix the dry ranch salad dressing mix, mayonnaise, and Dijon mustard with the egg yolks for the filling.

Pastry Bag or Zip-Top Bag: If you want to achieve a more elegant presentation, using a pastry bag with a star tip can help pipe the egg yolk filling into the egg white halves with precision. If you don't have a pastry bag, a zip-top bag with a corner snipped off can work as a makeshift alternative.

Plate or Serving Platter: After scooping out the yolks and mixing the filling, use a plate or serving platter to hold the egg white halves, ready for filling.

Plastic Wrap: Important for covering the ranch deviled eggs before chilling in the fridge. This not only prevents the eggs from absorbing other odors in the fridge but also allows the flavors to meld together.

what goes with it?


Ahi Tuna Tartare: these ranch deviled eggs are the more outgoing version of the classic deviled egg. The tangy ranch flavor will add a fun twist to the more subtle flavors of tuna tartare.

Bacon-wrapped Dates: the rich creaminess of the ranch filling perfectly complements the smoky, sweet flavors of bacon-wrapped dates, creating a harmonious balance of flavors.

Buffalo Chicken Dip: the cool ranch flavor of these deviled eggs will add a refreshing contrast to the spicy heat of buffalo chicken dip, creating a dynamic taste sensation for your guests.

Mini Crab Cakes: the creamy ranch deviled eggs will provide a refreshing and light contrast to the rich, savory flavors of mini crab cakes, creating a delightful balance of textures and tastes.
