A quick and easy appetizer combining creamy deviled eggs with smoky salmon and crunchy everything bagel seasoning, perfect for parties and gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 large eggs, preferably free-range
  • 4 oz (115 g) smoked salmon, thinly sliced
  • 4 oz (115 g) cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons everything bagel seasoning
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh dill or chives, finely chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Place 12 large eggs in a single layer in a large pot. Cover eggs with cold water, about 1 inch above eggs. Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, then cover the pot, turn off the heat, and let sit for 12 minutes.
  2. Immediately transfer eggs to an ice water bath for at least 5 minutes to stop cooking and make peeling easier.
  3. Gently tap eggs on a hard surface to crack shells, then peel carefully. Slice eggs in half lengthwise and scoop yolks into a mixing bowl; place whites on a serving platter.
  4. Mash the yolks with a fork or potato masher until crumbly. Add softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, fresh lemon juice, salt, and pepper to taste. Mix until smooth and creamy. Add a tiny splash of milk if mixture is too thick.
  5. Transfer yolk mixture to a piping bag or plastic bag with the tip cut off. Pipe the filling evenly into each egg white half.
  6. Cut smoked salmon into small strips or bite-sized pieces and place on top of each filled egg. Sprinkle generously with everything bagel seasoning and garnish with chopped fresh dill or chives.
  7. Refrigerate the eggs for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld. Serve chilled.

Notes

Use slightly older eggs for easier peeling. Soften cream cheese to room temperature for smooth filling. If filling is too dry, add more mayo or cream cheese; if too wet, add more yolk or seasoning. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days; add toppings just before serving for best texture.
