Who doesn’t love southern deviled eggs? You can never just eat one. This is the classic deviled eggs recipe. It’s simple. Two parts mayo to one part mustard and a mix of sweet and dill pickle relish.

I don’t think it get’s more southern pot-luck that deviled eggs. I could make a meal out of eating them. You can literally make deviled eggs one million and one ways, but this is just a simple, classic, southern deviled eggs recipe. All you need is mayonnaise, mustard, dill and sweet pickle relish, some pimentos and salt and pepper. Super simple to throw together, and I promise that you won’t have any leftovers.

Equipment You’ll Need

This deviled eggs recipe is super simple to make. You’ll need a large pot to boil all your eggs in. Then you’ll either need a stand mixer or a hand mixer. I used this because you’ll want your mix to be as smooth as possible. This will make it easier to pipe and not get clogged up. So, obviously lastly, you’ll need a piping bag with a tip or just a plastic bag with the corner cut off. I like using a tip, because they just look prettier, but you don’t have to use one.

Ingredients You’ll Need

Boiled Eggs:

Ok, so obviously you’re going to need boiled eggs for this recipe. I used a dozen which makes 24 halves.

Mayonnaise:

You’ll use 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise.

Mustard:

You’ll use a tablespoon of yellow mustard.

Relish:

I used one tablespoon of dill pickle relish and a tablespoon of sweet pickle relish.

Pimentos:

I love pimentos and cook with them so often. I used a tablespoon of diced pimentos. These are the ones that come in the little jar.

Salt and Pepper:

Of course, a little salt and pepper…
