Deviled Egg Dip Is The Creamy, Crowd-Pleasing Appetizer You Can Make In Minutes

Deviled eggs are one of those shareable hors d'oeuvres revered for their distinct flavor, creamy texture, and easy-to-eat appeal. However, there are only so many ways you can serve these bite-sized snacks. While you can always make new recipes like soft and creamy egg salad with scrambled eggs, you can also put a new spin on your favorite appetizer instead and make crowd-pleasing deviled egg dip. To make this tasty spread, all you need to do is follow your classic deviled eggs recipe but with one important adjustment. Instead of using cooked egg whites as mini serving vessels, make an all-in-one dip by combining the whole hard-boiled eggs with cream cheese, mayonnaise, mustard, and pickle relish.

For a chunkier dip, grate your hard-boiled eggs against a box grater. Then, in a separate bowl, combine a small amount of room-temperature cream cheese with a few spoonfuls of mayo, relish, and mustard. Lastly, mix everything together along with your favorite seasonings. Conversely, to make a dip with an ultra-smooth consistency, add all your ingredients (eggs included) to a food processor and blend everything together until smooth. Since this versatile appetizer can be made in a snap, use a range of different toppings and extras to give this flavorful spread your own unique spin.

Once you see how easy this appetizer comes together, you may be eager to alter certain ingredients to better fit your taste buds. Just like traditional deviled eggs, this convenient dip can be made with a wide variety of sauces, spices, and toppings. Consider adding in your favorite hot sauce for extra spice or a bit of Worcestershire sauce for a more savory taste. If you don't want to use mayo, try Greek yogurt. Moreover, instead of the usual yellow mustard, opt for a different variety such as spicy brown or Dijon. While spicy brown mustard gives your spread more of a kick, Dijon perfectly balances the rich flavor of creamier ingredients.

To further upgrade your dip's underlying flavor, swap out the dill pickle relish for a sweeter variety. For additional texture, add in one or two fresh ingredients like chopped bell peppers, celery, or jalapeños. You can also top your spread with fully-cooked bacon or toasted breadcrumbs for a savory finishing touch.

When it comes to serving, include a colorful variety of chopped veggies, salty potato chips, buttery crackers, and toasted bread. Once you see how easy it is to make this tasty spread, you may feel inspired to make more egg-infused snacks. Consider making deviled egg pasta salad or turn your deviled eggs into mini sandwich buns for an unforgettable appetizer.
