“Better than Deviled Eggs” Stuffed Tomatoes with Egg Salad

These stuffed tomatoes with egg salad are the perfect treat for any time of the year, but they’re extra special during summer when tomatoes are in season. Either way, they’re filled with flavors, easy to make, and done in just 30 minutes.

Stuffed Tomatoes with Egg Salad

To make this recipe, I used tomatoes on the vine. However, you can use whatever tomatoes you like. Just make sure they’re all similar in size, as it gives the dish a beautiful presentation.

To chop the hard-boiled eggs for the egg salad, I used a box grater and finely shredded the eggs. You can also just finely chop them. But I tell you, by finely shredding the eggs, it gives the egg salad a fluffier and airier texture.

Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • 6 tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup low fat mayonnaise 120 grams
  • 1 tbsp dijon mustard 14 grams
  • 1/3 cup chopped red onion 50 grams
  • 1/4 cup chopped celery 25 grams
  • 1/4 cup chopped dill pickels 25 grams
  • 1 clove garlic (finely grated)
  • 2 tbsp chopped chives 5 grams
  • 2 tsp lemon juice 10 ml
  • sea salt & black pepper
  • chopped chives for garnish

Instructions

  1. Add the eggs into a sauce pan, fill with water just enough to cover the eggs, and heat with a high heat, once it comes to a boil, place a lid on the pan and turn off the heat

  2. In the meantime, cut off a little from the top of each tomato, then using a pairing knife gently cut around the inside of each tomato, this is to help loosen up the pulp, then using a spoon gently scoop out the pulp (I like to have a bowl underneath), then season the inside of the tomatoes with salt and place cut side down over paper towels

  3. After leaving the eggs to sit for 10 minutes and they are hard-boiled, transfer them into a bowl with iced water

  4. Once the eggs are cool enough to handle, peel the eggs, then using a box grater finely shred the eggs

  5. Add the shredded eggs into a large bowl, along with the mayonnaise, dijon mustard, chopped red onion, chopped celery, chopped dill pickels, the grated garlic, chopped chives, and lemon juice, then season with salt & pepper, and mix together until well mixed

  6. Stuff the tomatoes with the egg salad and top off with chopped chives, enjoy!
