How to Store Leftovers

If you happen to have any leftovers (though they’re unlikely to last long!), store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Just be sure to consume them promptly to enjoy them at their freshest.

Food and Drink Pairings

Loaded deviled eggs pair wonderfully with a variety of beverages and appetizers. For a brunch gathering, serve them alongside mimosas or Bloody Marys. If you’re hosting an evening soirée, pair them with a crisp white wine or a refreshing gin and tonic. As for appetizers, they complement dishes like smoked salmon crostini, cheese platters, and bruschetta beautifully.
