Pro Tips for Success:

  • Chill the eggs before slicing so the yolks stay firm and easier to mix.

  • Add a pinch of sugar to the filling if you want a sweet and savory twist.

  • Use a piping bag or sandwich bag with the tip snipped off to get that perfect pumpkin shape.

  • Try Greek yogurt instead of mayo for a lighter, protein-packed version.

  • Make them spicy by adding a dash of hot sauce or cayenne to the filling.

  • Color the yolk mix deeper orange with a little more turmeric or a drop of natural food coloring if needed.
