Deviled Egg Boats

These cleverly engineered eggs with a mustardy zip and colorful sails are sure to become an instant favorite with your crew.

Ingredients
  • 12 hard-boiled eggs
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons vinegar (white or cider)
  • 1/4 to 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 red, orange, yellow, or green bell peppers
  • Paprika
Instructions
  1. Peel the eggs, then slice each one in half to make boats. Place the yolks in a medium-sized bowl and mash them with a fork. Add the mustard and the vinegar, then add the mayonnaise, stirring until the consistency is smooth but not soupy.

  2. Next, make the sails. To do this, cut each pepper into 1-inch-wide strips, then cut the strips into 1-inch squares and slice each square in half diagonally.

  3. Fill the egg-white halves with the yolk mixture. Stick the sail upright into the filling and sprinkle with paprika. Makes two dozen.
