These are not your typical smooth deviled eggs. The filling is chunky, sweet, and savory, studded with chewy sun-dried tomatoes and fresh basil. You must use dry-packed sun-dried tomatoes (the kind in a bag, not oil-packed jars) for the right texture.

Ingredients

~24 deviled eggs

  • 12 extra-large hard-boiled eggs
  • 3/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp honey
  • 1/2 cup dry-packed sun-dried tomatoes very finely chopped
  • 4 1/2 Tbsp fresh basil very finely chopped
  • 3/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 3/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt plus more to taste

Instructions

  • Hard boil eggs and cool completely.
  • Slice eggs in half lengthwise and remove yolks.
  • Mash yolks in bowl with fork.
  • Add red pepper flakes, black pepper, salt, honey, and mayonnaise.
  • Mix until creamy consistency is reached.
  • Fold in chopped sun-dried tomatoes and basil.
  • Spoon filling into egg white halves.
  • Garnish with reserved sun-dried tomato pieces.
