Saucepan for boiling eggs
Mixing bowl for the filling
Piping bag or zip-top bag for easy filling
Small spoon or knife for decorating
Instructions
1. Boil the eggs: Place eggs in a saucepan, cover with water, bring to a boil, then simmer 10 minutes. Transfer to an ice bath and peel.
2. Halve the eggs: Slice eggs lengthwise and remove yolks into a mixing bowl.
3. Make the filling: Mash yolks with mayonnaise, Dijon, vinegar/lemon juice, salt, and pepper until creamy.
4. Pipe the filling: Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg whites.

Notes
These deviled eggs can be made a day ahead; decorate just before serving for the freshest look.
Use food-safe gel or natural colorings for safer eye designs.
For an extra Halloween twist, sprinkle paprika in pumpkin shapes or use edible googly eyes.
