Can I make these Halloween deviled eggs ahead?

Absolutely! In fact, they taste better after chilling. Prep the filled eggs up to 24 hours in advance—just hold off on adding olive decorations until right before serving so they stay fresh-looking.

How long do spooky deviled eggs last?

They'll keep fresh in the fridge for about 2 days max. After that, the filling might start to weep (and nobody wants a crying zombie egg!). Store them in an airtight container with parchment between layers.

Are there vegan options for these Halloween appetizers?

You bet! Swap eggs for firm tofu slices or halved small potatoes. Use vegan mayo, and for the "yolks," blend turmeric, mustard, and cashew cream. Black beans make great edible "pupils" instead of olives. Spooky and inclusive!
