  1. Carefully cut 12 large eggs in half lengthwise.
  2. Gently remove the yolks and place them in a medium bowl.

  4. Add 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh dill, 1 tablespoon finely chopped red onion, 1 tablespoon crumbled feta cheese, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper to the egg yolks.
  5. Mash the yolk mixture with a fork until smooth and creamy.
  6. Spoon the yolk mixture into the egg white halves, creating a small mound on top of each.
  7. Garnish each stuffed egg half with a small caper.
