California-Style Devilled Eggs
Making the traditional devilled egg is incredible, yet there’s a ton of variations as well. For instance, I adore the Salsa Deviled Eggs that I make, when I need that spicy kick.
Here’s another that you’ll love!
Every Christmas Eve we host a gathering where only appetizers is served. This means that one task of mine during the holiday season is to decide on what I’ll be serving our guests.
Over the years I have accumulated a list of favourites, yet I do like to change up the same-old and put a different spin on even the classic recipes.
One dish on the menu that is always a hit when entertaining is devilled eggs, it’s like an appetizer staple!
When faced with all the treats and food indulgences during the holidays, it’s nice to include healthy and protein-packed eggs in the menu as well.
So this year when contemplating a new spin on devilled eggs, where do you turn for ideas? Eggs.ca of course!
I finally settled on California-Style Devilled Eggs. I just couldn’t resist the addition of sun-dried tomatoes.
This recipe really does kick the classic devilled egg recipe up a notch. Give it a try and you might just find the traditional method so boring!
California-Style Devilled Eggs
California-Style Devilled Eggs that includes sun-dried tomatoes, basil, balsamic vinegar. This recipe makes for the perfect appetizer!
Ingredients
- 12 hard-cooked eggs, peeled
- 1/4 cup low fat mayonnaise or Miracle Whip, 60 mL
- 2 tsp Dijon mustard, 10 mL
- 2 tbsp finely chopped rehydrated or well drained oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, 30 mL
- 4 tsp chopped fresh basil, 20 mL
- 1 tsp balsamic vinegar, 5 mL
- 1/4 tsp salt, 1.25 mL
- Pinch pepper
- Chopped sun-dried tomatoes, for garnish
- Small fresh basil leaves, for garnish
Instructions
- Cut eggs in half lengthwise.
- Remove yolks. With fork, mash yolks; add mayonnaise, mustard, sun-dried tomatoes, basil, balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper.
- Refill whites with yolk mixture. Garnish with sun-dried tomatoes and basil.
- Serve immediately or cover and store in refrigerator. Use within 2 days.
Notes
Choose eggs that have been in your refrigerator for a few days for hard-cooking rather than very fresh eggs, as less fresh eggs will be easier to peel.

Homemade Egg Nog
I have to say that my favourite sweet recipe using eggs that I love to make at Christmas, is an old family one. It is a take on Nanaimo Bars, called Chocolate Dreams. The base is a graham crust, made with a beaten egg, sugar and spices. The middle layer is also made with eggs, as well as icing sugar and milk. The top layer is unsweetened chocolate. For a savoury dish with eggs, we always have lasagna and ceasar salad for Christmas Eve dinner. I use eggs in both of those dishes…………..Happy Holidays!!!!!
Frittata
MY husband makes the best breakfasts over the holidays and they all have eggs. Two of my favourites are eggs benedict and Mexican breakfast wraps (scrambled eggs, cheese, peppers, salsa, sour cream, cilantro and spinach in tortillas).

My favorite Holiday Baking with eggs, according to all the grandchildren, is my Snowmen. I start with a rich yeast dough containing eggs, yeast, flour, scalded milk, salt , shortening, sugar, orange zest, and orange juice. I cut them out with a gingerbread man cutout. When risen and baked, I let them cool and ice them with a rich homemade icing and decorate with cut up gumdrops. I’ve been baking them for forty years and they still add for them.
I love making (ie. eating) meringue cookies and filling them with delicious lemon curd. The meringues use egg whites and the curd uses the yolks. So delicious!
I usually make ham & cheese quiche for Christmas morning – delicious! Thanks for the chance to win!
Besides devilled eggs, I love a carmelized onion and asparagus quiche.

She ate this one and loved it! I was even surprised.
