Happy National Deviled Egg Day! For all of us Deviled Egg lovers, this is our Christmas in November! Not that I really need a reason to celebrate, but it’s nice to have a whole day dedicated to the best food out there.

Originally I was going to make an over-the-top, completely crazy recipe for today. However, the more I thought about it, the more I wanted to make my “classic recipe”. My go to Deviled Egg recipe that I make for parties/gatherings/nights alone on the couch. Sometimes simplicity is all you need.

My Deviled Egg recipe consists of three things: mayonnaise, pepper and shit ton of mustard. Yummmm mustard. Mustard is another one of those things that I hated growing up but am now obsessed with. I cannot overstate how much of my diet consists of mustard. My new go-to is Hellman’s Dijonaise, which combines the mustard and mayo, bringing this recipe down to two ingredients (minus the eggs, of course). I probably go through a container of Dijonaise a week. A week! I dip pretzels in, put it on sandwiches, put in my Deviled Eggs, etc. It’s so good. Go buy some now and then come back and finish reading this recipe.
