"I love deviled eggs because they are so old-fashioned and yummy," says Alexis Swanson Traina. This classic version, made with two kinds of mustard and served with paprika, is a specialty of the Swanson family cook, Terry Sweetland. They're easy to make and deliciously creamy.
Shakshuka Deviled Eggs
Shakshuka meets deviled eggs in this colorful snack.

The yolks are pureed with mayo and plain yogurt for a creamy, perfectly balanced filling with a little bit of tang.
Caviar-Topped Deviled Eggs
For these deviled eggs, chef Evan Babb channels his mother's and grandmother's classic recipes for the filling, which gets a briny kick from a splash of olive juice. A dollop of sturgeon caviar on top takes these deviled eggs to the next level.
