Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 8 large eggs
  • 1 red bell pepper (sliced in half and seeded)
  • 4 tbsp. homemade mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp. Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 tsp. paprika
  • 2 chives (sliced)
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to “broil” (as high as it will go).
  • Place the bell peppers in the oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until charred.
  • Put the eggs in a single layer in a saucepan on the stovetop, covered by at least 1-2 inches of cold water.
  • Bring the eggs to a boil, and boil for 10 minutes.
  • Remove the eggs from heat, and rinse under cold water continuously for 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Crack egg shells and carefully peel them under cool running water.
  • Slice the eggs in half lengthwise, and set the yolks aside.
  • Place the yolks in a food processor with the roasted bell pepper, mayonnaise, mustard, and half the paprika.
  • Process the mixture until smooth and season to taste.
  • Spoon the mixture into egg white halves, and shape the visible part of the yolk mixture into a pumpkin shape.
  • Sprinkle with paprika, and place a single chive slice into each yolk mixture to make the “stem” of the pumpkin.
