๐Ÿฅš12 Unconventional (But Delicious) Deviled Egg Fillings

Culinary curveballs that won't get you banned from brunch.

1. Avocado & Lime ๐Ÿฅ‘๐Ÿ‹

A creamy twist on the classic. The avocado adds richness, the lime brightens everything up. Think guacamole meets deviled eggโ€”yes, please.

2. Smoked Salmon & Dill ๐ŸŸ๐ŸŒฟ

Silky, smoky salmon folded into the yolk mix, topped with a sprig of fresh dill. Itโ€™s like a bagel brunch in a single bite.

3. Curry Powder & Greek Yogurt ๐ŸŒถ๏ธ๐Ÿฅ„

Swap the mayo for tangy Greek yogurt and add a dash of curry powder for a lightly spiced, protein-packed upgrade.

4. Pesto & Parmesan ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿง€

A swirl of basil pesto and a sprinkle of grated Parm turns this egg into a tiny Italian vacation. Rich, herby, and totally addictive.

5. Roasted Red Pepper & Feta ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿง‚

Smoky-sweet red peppers blended with salty feta cheese = bold flavor with a Mediterranean twist. Bonus: theyโ€™re super colorful.

6. Kimchi & Scallions ๐ŸŒถ๏ธ๐Ÿง„

Chop up some mild kimchi and fold it into your filling for a spicy, funky, probiotic-powered bite. Garnish with scallions for crunch.

7. Bacon & Maple Dijon ๐Ÿฅ“๐Ÿ

Crispy bacon crumbles + a touch of maple syrup + Dijon mustard = sweet-salty-savory heaven. Itโ€™s brunchy, itโ€™s balanced, itโ€™s a winner.

8. Sriracha & Pickled Ginger ๐ŸŒถ๏ธ๐Ÿฃ

Inspired by sushi flavors, this one brings heat and tang. Great with a touch of soy sauce in the filling for umami depth.

9. Crab Meat & Lemon Zest ๐Ÿฆ€๐Ÿ‹

A coastal twist! Fresh crab folded in with yolks, a bit of lemon zest, and maybe a dab of Old Bay. Impressively fancy with minimal effort.

10. Sun-Dried Tomato & Goat Cheese ๐Ÿ…๐Ÿ

Rich, tangy, and umami-packed. The goat cheese makes the filling extra creamy, and the tomatoes bring that deep, savory-sweet note.

11. Zaโ€™atar & Tahini ๐Ÿง‚๐ŸŒฐ

A Middle Eastern spin: sesame-rich tahini replaces the mayo, and a sprinkle of zaโ€™atar adds a citrusy, herby punch. Earthy and elegant.

12. Everything Bagel Seasoning & Cream Cheese ๐Ÿง…๐Ÿง„

Skip the toastโ€”just blend the yolks with cream cheese and top with that magical everything mix. Itโ€™s brunch in a bite.

๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿณ Bonus Tips:

  • Use a piping bag (or a ziplock with the tip cut off) for next-level presentation.

  • Add a fresh herb or tiny pickle slice on top to make them look as good as they taste.

  • Donโ€™t skip the salt and acidโ€”a pinch of salt and splash of vinegar/lemon juice make a big difference!
