I highly recommend the Snapware Snap ‘N Stack 2 Layer Food Storage W/ Egg Holder TraysCurried Deviled Eggs Recipe (5) if you need to transport deviled eggs. I am madly in love with snapware, and this container is reasonably priced, gets your eggs there without them moving or getting squashed, and you can put thin ice packs underneath the trays to keep the eggs cold while transporting. I also use this for storing in the fridge. I have two, so simply stack them when making a lot of deviled eggs for a large party!

Tips and variations for making these curried deviled eggs:

● To make this recipe keto friendly, skip the Greek yogurt and substitute 1/3 cup of Mayonnaise (this would be in addition to the ¼ cup of mayo listed in the recipe).

● In case you are not serving the curried deviled eggs immediately, do not garnish. Cover and keep them refrigerated. Garnish just before serving.

● Many people use a star tip in their piping bag for a “fancier” look. If you do not want to use a piping bag, a spoon works great to fill the whites with the yolk mixture.
