Do These Deviled Potatoes Actually Taste Like Deviled Eggs?
From the photos you can see that these sweet little deviled potatoes look just like deviled eggs. But how do they taste? How and how does this brilliant recipe sorcery actually work?
The potatoes get their creaminess from the vegan mayo, the tanginess from Dijon mustard, and the consistency from the beans and potato. The Dutch potato makes a perfect “shell.” For Easter, you could use the red or purple varieties as part of the mix for a colorful plant-based alternative to deviled eggs.

“I recently had the pleasure of serving these beauties at one of my favorite cookware stores, Willams Sonoma. I did an in-store demo, showing the patrons how easy it is to make this delicious and beautiful appetizer. I loved watching people’s surprised faces as they bit into them and learned that they were eggless! Many couldn’t believe there wasn’t a trace of egg inside. They were a big hit in the store, and I was thrilled to introduce several people to some of my favorite vegan products, such as Follow Your Heart’s Vegenaise.”
