Ingredients
Scale
Eggs & Filling
- 12 hard boiled eggs, peeled
- 2 slices Boar's Head corned beef, diced
- 1/2 cup diced cabbage
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
- salt & pepper, to taste
Garnish
- 2 tbsp finely grated carrots
- thinly sliced green onions
Instructions
- Prepare the eggs: Slice the hard boiled eggs in half lengthwise. Gently remove the yolks and place them into a medium-sized bowl.
- Sauté the cabbage: In a small skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced cabbage for 3 minutes, or until softened but not browned. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Make the filling: Add mayonnaise and Dijon mustard to the egg yolks and whip until completely smooth and creamy.
- Combine ingredients: Stir in the diced corned beef and sautéed cabbage until evenly incorporated. Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste.
- Fill the eggs: Transfer the yolk mixture into a gallon-sized ziplock bag, seal the bag, then snip off one bottom corner. Pipe the filling evenly into the egg white halves.
- Garnish and serve: Sprinkle finely grated carrots and sliced green onions over the filled eggs for garnish. Serve immediately or chill in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Notes
- Use fresh eggs that are about a week old for easier peeling.
- Sauté the cabbage just until softened to avoid mushy texture.
- For a spicier filling, add a dash of hot sauce or smoked paprika to the yolk mixture.
- If you prefer, substitute Dijon mustard with whole-grain mustard for extra texture.
- Store deviled eggs in an airtight container and consume within 2 days for best freshness.
