6 large eggs, hard-boiled, peeled and halved. You can find our favorite method here!
1/3 cup medium-sized shrimp, cooked, peeled, and deveined
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Additional shrimp, Old Bay and cocktail sauce, optional for garnish
Finely mince shrimp and set aside.
Remove yolks and place in a small bowl. Mash yolks with a fork and stir in shrimp, mayonnaise, sour cream, mustard, and lemon juice. Add salt and pepper, to taste.
Fill egg whites evenly with yolk mixture. Garnish with additional shrimp, if desired. Add a sprinkle of Old Bay seasoning for another layer of flavor. A side of cocktail sauce makes for a nice presentation. Store covered in refrigerator.
Get creative and use ingredients you already have on hand. Make the basic filling and let the kids fill a small plastic bag with a small amount of the egg filling and let them add their favorite extra fillings (such as bacon, diced ham, cheddar cheese, etc.). Cut off the tip of the bag and let the kids pipe their mixture into the whites. Recipe can be doubled.
