Note
Storage: Cover the deviled eggs tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 2 days. Do not freeze.
Substitutions: You can use fresh chopped parsley and chives instead of dried herbs for a brighter flavor. If you prefer a richer taste, substitute half the yogurt with mayonnaise.
Tip: For easier peeling, run hard-boiled eggs under cold water after cooking and let them sit for 15 minutes before peeling.
Variation: Add a pinch of garlic powder or a few drops of hot sauce for an extra kick.
