Ingredients
- 6 hard boiled eggs cut in half
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon red onion or shallot finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons fresh dill chopped
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 ounces smoked salmon divided

Instructions
- Hard boil your eggs (see in notes how to hard boil an egg). Gently peel the eggs under cold water and make sure to remove any egg shells. Pat dry with a paper towel.
- Slice the hard boiled eggs in half lengthwise. With a spoon, scoop out the egg yolks and place them in a medium bowl. Use a fork to mash the egg yolks together until they are finely crumbled. Add the mayo, red onion, lemon juice, dill, Dijon mustard, salt, pepper, and 2 ounces of chopped smoked salmon. Mix until all of the ingredients in the yolk mixture is completely combined.
- Use a spoon or small cookie scoop to fill the inside of the egg whites until you use up all of the yolk mixture. Top with smoked salmon slices, then garnish with capers. Enjoy!
