Ingredients
  

6 large eggs

3 tablespoons mayonnaise

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons feta cheese, crumbled

2 tablespoons sun-dried tomatoes, finely chopped

Fresh basil leaves, for garnish

Extra smoked paprika, for garnish

Instructions
 

Boil the Eggs: Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, cover the pot with a lid, turn off the heat, and let the eggs sit for 12 minutes.

    Cool and Peel: After 12 minutes, transfer the eggs to an ice bath to cool for about 5 minutes. Once cooled, gently tap the eggs to crack the shells and peel them under running water.

      Prepare the Filling: Slice the peeled eggs in half lengthwise and carefully remove the yolks into a mixing bowl. Place the egg whites on a serving platter.

        Mix Ingredients: Mash the yolks with a fork and add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.

          Add the Twist: Gently fold in the crumbled feta cheese and sun-dried tomatoes until well combined.

            Fill the Egg Whites: Using a spoon or a piping bag, fill each egg white half with the yolk mixture.

              Garnish: Sprinkle a pinch of smoked paprika on top of the filled eggs and add a small basil leaf for garnish.

                Serve & Enjoy: Serve the deviled eggs cold or at room temperature for your guests to enjoy.
