    Ingredients

    • 6 large eggs

    • 1/4 cup mayonnaise

    • 1 tablespoon Creole mustard

    • 1 teaspoon hot sauce

    • 1/4 teaspoon paprika

    • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

    • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder

    • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper

    • 3 tablespoons chopped green onions

    • 3 tablespoons chopped celery

    • 1/4 teaspoon salt

    • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper

    Directions

    • Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, remove the saucepan from heat, cover it, and let it stand for 10 minutes.
    • After cooking, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool for about five minutes. This will make peeling them easier and prevent overcooking.
    • Once cooled, peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthwise. Carefully remove the yolks and place them in a mixing bowl, setting aside the whites.
    • Mash the yolks with a fork until smooth. Add mayonnaise, Creole mustard, hot sauce, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well combined and creamy.
    • Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg whites, ensuring that each egg half is generously filled.
    • Garnish the deviled eggs with chopped green onions and celery. Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

    Tip of the Day

    “Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

    Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

    The Last Days of Summer: How to Eat Before It’s Gone

    The final weeks of summer produce represent a nutritional opportunity that is worth acting on specifically — because the peak-season produce that is most abundant and most flavorful right now is also at its highest concentration of vitamins, antioxidants, and phytonutrients. Research on produce nutritional quality consistently finds that the gap between peak-season and out-of-season nutritional content is widest in the summer vegetables and fruits — tomatoes, peaches, corn, peppers — that define the late summer abundance. Eating these foods now, and preserving them in forms that retain their nutritional value, is both a culinary and nutritional investment in the months that follow.
