My Husband's Deviled Egg Solution: Potato Angels!
6 new potatoes, peeled and halved
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 tablespoons vegan mayonnaise
1 teaspoon yellow mustard
1 to 2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
dash hot sauce
dash garlic powder
salt and pepper, to taste
dash turmeric , optional, for yellow color
paprika, for dusting
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F, and grease a cookie sheet. Coat all sides of each potato with olive oil. Place potatoes face down on prepared cookie sheet and bake for about 45 minutes, or until soft (but not too mushy).
2. While the potatoes are roasting, mix the rest of the ingredients (except paprika) together. When the potatoes are done, allow to cool a bit, and then use a sharp knife to cut into the flat side of each potato and then hollow it out with a spoon. You want to be left with a little cup-shaped potato.
3. Add the scooped-out potato to your mayo/mustard mix and blend well. You can then fill the hollowed out potato shells with the mixture piping it on with a cake decorating bag, or do it like he did and just blop it in there. Dust each potato with paprika.
You can refrigerate them for later, or eat them right away like we did! Bring to a potluck and watch your friends grin with delight!
*New potatoes are the very thin skinned potatoes. I've seen them called Klamath Potatoes as well. Try to get ones that are similar in size and shape for uniformity (egg shaped?!).
Source of recipe: My husband was having a Deviled Egg craving, and decided to try making a replica using potatoes instead of hard boiled eggs. I was very skeptical, but quite impressed with the results! It's quite brilliant, actually.
SO HOW'D IT GO?
This was so very amazing. Thank you so very much for sharing.

I am so excited to try this! they look soo yummy!
A very successful, idiot-proof recipe, which I tried out on myself first - and scoffed the lot. A week later I took them to my parents's house and we had them as an 'amuse bouche' when my omnivorous mother made a 3 course lunch for us. Again they went down very well: she really enjoyed them with a glass of wine, relaxing after being in the kitchen, and before we sat down to eat the meal. My carnivorous dad, who doesn't usually say very much - told me they were "very nice" (high praise indeed!) my only alteration was a garnish of watercress. I took some photos, intending to post them here, before I realised there are loads here already. Delicious!
YUMMY ! - wow these are the best!! I made some for a party today and no one at the party was even vegetarian; let alone vegan and they were a huge hit!!! I used red potatoes, peeled, added the black salt as previously mentioned; doubled the recipe and added a white potato for extra filling. Have enough filling for an egg salad sandwich for tomorrow! Will be a regular party recipe going forward!!! Awesome!!
We loved this!! We made these last night and couldn't stop eating them ;)b We used the new red skin potatoes. We actually left the skin on and they were great. Now I don't have to miss deviled eggs anymore :)>>>
delicious! I only made a few minor changes - left the skin on and after I oiled them I gave them a sprinkle of salt before they went into the oven. I baked a few extra potatos which was good because I actually didn't quite have enough filling (maybe I over-filled them?) so it worked out to 12 potato angels plus two skins which I ate plain. Oh and I put a bit of relish and some parsley and chives into the filling, and ommitted the onion.....Anyhoo, delicious stuff. Omnivore partner likes them too.
These are soooo amazing! I loved them. Thanks for the awesome recipe! I followed it exactly as it is written, except my potatoes might be different.
Yep, they're awfully good! I used small red potatoes and didn't peel them. The consistency of the mashed filling was a little dense, because of the type of potato. I'm considering cooking a small Russet potato along with the others, just to use to make the filling a little fluffier next time. I was too lazy to mince onions; so I left them out, but my husband and both thought that, while they were good without them, they would have been even better with them.
I can't wait to try these. Your husband is brilliant! ;)b
these are really not time consuming at all. but if you make them ahead, dont reheat them. they are great out of the fridge. or after they have sat at room temp for a while. they are fine the next day or two days later. enjoy!!!
