What should I serve with this deviled egg dip?
There are plenty of ways to enjoy this delicious dip. While crackers and crudites like sliced carrot, cucumber, and celery are a classic choice, you can always branch out and widen your spread of dunking options. Generally, anything crunchy and easy to eat with your hands will work well.
A great snack to serve with your deviled egg dip is pretzels. You can go with classic mini pretzels, pretzel rods, or even pretzel crisps here, with all providing that perfect crunchy contrast to the creamy dip. Breadsticks, pita chips, or tortilla chips are also wonderful for scooping up the dip, with their mild taste allowing the flavors of the creamy egg mixture to shine.
This dip is also great as a sandwich spread, so you could serve it with slices of crusty bread or baguette for guests to build mini sandwiches. Or, if you're looking to build a larger grazing board, deviled egg dip would fit in nicely, perhaps alongside cured meats, olives, cheese, and other dips such as guacamole or hummus.
Can I make any ingredient swaps in this deviled egg dip?
Making a few tweaks to some of the ingredients in this recipe is no problem at all. It's super easy to adjust the flavor and texture of the dip to your liking. When it comes to the Greek yogurt, you can swap all or part of this out for sour cream if desired. This will give a slightly richer taste and texture. Alternatively, to lighten up the texture of the dip, you could opt for plain yogurt, which isn't quite as thick as Greek yogurt and doesn't have as much tanginess.
If you're not a fan of dill pickles, try using sweet pickles or pickle relish for a milder, sweeter flavor. You could also use capers or chopped green olives for a briny twist. The mustard is also easy to switch out for yellow mustard or even a wholesome wholegrain mustard.
To add new elements of flavor to the dip, feel free to incorporate some extra ingredients. Try amping up the spice level with a pinch of cayenne pepper or a dash of hot sauce. Or, for a heartier dip and boost of protein, try mixing in some crumbled bacon, shredded ham, or smoked salmon. Fresh herbs like parsley or dill would also be a great option for adding brightness to the dip.
