Deviled Green Eggs

What it is
A classic Portuguese appetizer or snack made from hard-boiled eggs. The yolks are removed, mashed, and mixed with mayonnaise, mustard, and plenty of fresh parsley (giving them their green color), then refilled into the egg whites. Inherently keto-friendly.

Optional tweaks
