How to Make Simple Deviled Eggs

  1. Place 6 large eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat, cover, and let sit for 12 minutes.
  2. Drain hot water and run cold water over the eggs until cool enough to handle. Gently tap eggs all over and peel under cold running water.
  3. Carefully cut eggs in half lengthwise and remove yolks to a medium bowl. Set egg whites aside.
  4. Mash yolks with a fork until smooth. Add 1/4 cup of Miracle Whip (or mayonnaise) and mix until you reach your desired consistency.
  5. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon paprika, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of black pepper.
  6. Fill each egg white with the yolk mixture using a spoon or piping bag.
  7. Sprinkle a pinch of paprika over each deviled egg.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow flavors to meld.
