A simple, quick, and creamy deviled eggs recipe perfect for dorm living, using just five pantry staples and a microwave.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise (60 ml)
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon white vinegar
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: smoked paprika for garnish
  • Optional: chopped chives or green onions
  • Optional: hot sauce

Instructions

  1. Place 6 eggs in a microwave-safe bowl and cover completely with water. Cover the bowl with a microwave-safe plate or lid to avoid splatters.
  2. Microwave on high for 8 minutes, then check if cooked (the water should be boiling). If not done, microwave in 30-second bursts until eggs are hard-boiled.
  3. Carefully drain hot water and place eggs in ice water or cold tap water for 5 minutes to cool and stop cooking.
  4. Tap each egg gently on the counter to crack the shell and peel under running water if possible.
  5. Slice each egg in half lengthwise. Gently scoop out yolks into a small bowl. Set egg whites aside.
  6. Mash yolks with a fork until crumbly. Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white vinegar, salt, and pepper. Mix well until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  7. Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg whites evenly.
  8. Optionally, garnish with smoked paprika, chopped chives, or a few drops of hot sauce. Serve immediately or chill for later.

Notes

Microwaving times may vary depending on your microwave wattage; start with 8 minutes and add 30-second increments as needed. Cooling eggs in ice water after cooking helps with peeling. You can prepare filling a day ahead and assemble before serving. Customize with hot sauce, paprika, or fresh herbs for variety.
