Can I make the deviled eggs ahead of time?

You can boil the eggs ahead of time. You can cut the eggs in half ahead of time but separate the yolks from the whites before refrigerating. The egg whites’ texture changes and turns chewy, therefore it’s better to wrap the egg whites in plastic wrap before placing it in an airtight container. The filling tastes better if made the same day of serving the deviled eggs.

Can I refrigerate the leftover deviled eggs?

You can refrigerate the already made deviled eggs. Store it in an airtight container and you are safe to consume it for up to three days.
