These deviled eggs combine roasted beets and blue cheese for a colorful, flavorful patriotic appetizer that’s quick and easy to prepare.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs, hard-boiled and peeled
  • 1 medium beet (about 6 oz / 170 g), roasted and peeled
  • 2 oz (60 g) blue cheese crumbles
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh chives, finely chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Wrap the beet in foil and place on a baking sheet. Roast for 45-50 minutes until tender. Let cool, peel, and cut into chunks.
  2. Place eggs in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water by about an inch. Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, cover the pot, turn off heat, and let eggs sit for 12 minutes. Transfer eggs to an ice bath immediately.
  3. Gently tap eggs to crack shells and peel under running water if needed. Slice each egg in half lengthwise and remove yolks into a bowl.
  4. Mash roasted beet chunks and egg yolks together until mostly smooth with some texture. Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white wine vinegar, salt, and pepper. Stir in blue cheese crumbles, reserving some for garnish. Adjust seasoning and consistency as needed.
  5. Fill each egg white half with the beet and blue cheese filling using a spoon or piping bag. Garnish with reserved blue cheese and chopped chives.
  6. Refrigerate deviled eggs for at least 30 minutes before serving. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Notes

Older eggs peel easier than fresh ones. Roasting beets enhances their natural sweetness and color. Chill deviled eggs for at least 30 minutes before serving. You can prepare the filling a day ahead and assemble before serving. Avoid freezing deviled eggs as texture may suffer.
