Ingredients
- 7 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 cloves garlic, sliced thin
- 5 oz baby spinach
- 1/3 cup mayo
- 1 tablespoon mustard
- 1/2 lemon (juice)
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon hot sauce
- 2 tablespoons dehydrated potato flakes
- 1 red Fresno chili pepper, minced
- 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into small stars

Instructions
- Begin by cooking the eggs. Place them in a pot, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, turn off the heat, cover, and let eggs sit for 12-15 minutes.
- Rinse eggs under cold water, then peel and slice in half.
- Sauté sliced garlic in butter until fragrant, add spinach and cook until wilted. Remove from heat and let cool.
- In a mixing bowl or food processor, combine yolks, mayo, mustard, lemon juice, smoked paprika, hot sauce, and potato flakes. Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Fill each egg white half with the yolk mixture. Assemble filled eggs in a tree shape, using yellow bell pepper stars as ornaments and the Fresno chili for flair.
Notes
Cool eggs in ice water to prevent overcooking. Taste your filling as you mix to adjust flavors to your liking.
