- Hard-boil 12 eggs, cool, peel, halve, and carefully remove the yolks; reserve the whites.
- Combine egg yolks, 6 tablespoons mayonnaise, 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard, 4 teaspoons puréed beets, 2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice, and 2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh chives in a medium nonreactive bowl. Season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper and mix well until yolks are broken up and ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- Evenly pipe or spoon yolk mixture into reserved egg white halves. As desired, top with Rogue Creamery’s Smokey Blue Cheese.
