To Make Ahead: You can store boiled, unpeeled eggs in the refrigerator for up to a week. Once eggs are peeled, store them in the refrigerator up to 2 days. You can also make the filling and store it in a sealed container or in a piping bag in the fridge. Just before serving, pipe the filling into the egg whites and garnish. Storing Leftovers: Store leftover deviled eggs in an airtight container in the refrigerator in a single layer for up to 2 days. Variations: Try using capers or green olives instead of pickles; substitute smoked paprika for bacon; use white vinegar in place of or in addition to pickle juice.
