I always associate deviled eggs with the holidays. I guess many people do. They are kind of the perfect passed appetizer. However, I find myself making the spread version more than the common halved lengthwise and stuffed adaptation. I like this way better and more of the egg taste we all love.
When I told my kids I was adding hummus to my deviled eggs, they told me not to. It sounded weird to them, even though they has no issue with hummus. I disagreed and felt it would be the perfect melding of flavors.
Let’s face it, trendy deviled eggs are in and these were awesome. My goal was to allow the taste of the egg and the hummus to shine through. I didn’t want competing flavors.
We loved them…even the kids who told me not to make them in the first place. Win for me.
When I use my method of cooking the eggs, they peel really well. They are perfectly smooth. In fact if you were making deviled eggs in their traditional form, these would be perfect to use.
I like to serve this spread with pita chips and mini pita pockets that have been quartered and toasted.

I can’t wait to make this for Easter. Much easier that the traditional way and the kids don’t have to know there’s hummus in it.
