Tall Overstuffed Deviled Eggs (Print-Friendly Recipe)

Creamy spinach and paprika filling piped into tall, festive egg halves topped with bell pepper stars and parmesan.

# Ingredients List:

→ Eggs

01 - 7 large eggs

→ Dairy & Fats

02 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
03 - 85 grams grated Parmesan cheese

→ Vegetables & Herbs

04 - 2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
05 - 140 grams baby spinach
06 - 1 red Fresno chili pepper, minced
07 - 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into small star shapes

→ Condiments & Spices

08 - 80 grams mayonnaise
09 - 1 tablespoon mustard
10 - Juice of 1/2 lemon
11 - 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
12 - 1/4 teaspoon hot sauce

→ Dry Ingredients

13 - 2 tablespoons dehydrated potato flakes

# How to Make It:

01 - Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil, then gently add the eggs. Boil for 9 and a half minutes. Immediately transfer the eggs to an ice water bath to cool completely.
02 - Peel the cooled eggs and rinse under cold water. Slice each egg in half crosswise so that the halves are rounded, aiming to slice through the yolk in half. Trim the bottom tips of the egg whites so they can stand upright without piercing the cavity. Refrigerate both the egg whites and collected yolks separately.
03 - Heat butter in a frying pan over medium heat. Add garlic slices and sauté until fragrant. Stir in baby spinach and cook until wilted and excess moisture evaporates, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and cool completely.
04 - In a blender, combine the cooked spinach mixture, egg yolks, mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, smoked paprika, hot sauce, and dehydrated potato flakes. Blend until smooth. Chill in the refrigerator. If filling is too soft to hold shape, stir in additional potato flakes incrementally.
05 - Transfer filling into a piping bag fitted with a star tip. Arrange egg whites upright on a platter. Pipe the filling into each white by bobbing the tip gently to create a layered tree shape. Fill 10 to 12 eggs, reserving extras as needed.
06 - Use two toothpicks to attach 5 to 6 pieces of minced red Fresno chili pepper to each tree as decoration. Top each with a star-shaped piece of yellow bell pepper. Finish by grating Parmesan cheese over the trees to simulate snow.

# Extra Information:

01 - Ensure the filling is thick enough to hold shape before piping by adjusting the potato flakes accordingly.
