Creamy Mediterranean Deviled Eggs Recipe Are Mayonnaise-Free & Full of Flavor

If you're like me, when you think of deviled eggs you think of mayonnaise. Most deviled egg recipes are made creamy with mayonnaise, but not this one. Lidia Bastianich posted a video of her making deviled eggs with no mayonnaise. After watching it, I immediately put eggs on to boil and scavenged my pantry and refrigerator to see what I could put into my no-mayo Mediterranean deviled eggs. This delish recipe is what I came up this – and just in time for Easter

Lidia put Dijon mustard, white wine vinegar, cornichons, zucchini, roasted red peppers, capers and Italian parsley in her eggs. The recipe below is my version made with the same Dijon mustard and white wine vinegar base, but I used capers, chopped sweet red pepper, Italian parsley, kalamata olives and grated Parmesan cheese. The egg yolks, Dijon mustard and white wine vinegar are pureed in a blender until smooth, then the capers, red pepper, fresh parsley, olives and cheese is stirred in. Season well with sea salt and black pepper, then stuff that flavorful mixture back into the eggs whites.

These deviled eggs are super creamy (thank you, healthy olive oil) and loaded with different flavors. This will be a new go-to deviled egg recipe for me. We are eating more Mediterranean foods because of how healthy the Mediterranean diet is for you, and I do think these eggs fit into that healthy eating plan.
