Q1: What is a boiled egg flight?

A boiled egg flight is a creative platter of hard boiled eggs served with a variety of toppings and sauces. Similar to a tasting board, it allows guests to sample different flavors—without needing mayonnaise or heavy fillings.

Q2: Can I make a boiled egg flight without mayonnaise?

Absolutely. In fact, mayo-free egg flights are healthier, lighter, and just as flavorful. Use toppings like guacamole, hummus, tahini, or sriracha aioli made with yogurt or cashews.

Q3: What toppings go well with hard boiled eggs?

Top choices include: tzatziki, garlic hummus, guacamole, sriracha yogurt, cashew cream, pesto, and tahini. Spices like everything bagel seasoning or paprika add great finishing touches.

Q4: Should hard boiled egg flights be served warm or cold?

Both work! Serve them warm for heartier flavors like bacon or pesto, or chilled for fresh toppings like tzatziki or hummus. Room temperature is also a great middle-ground.

Q5: How do I store leftover boiled egg flight items?

Store leftover eggs and toppings in airtight containers separately. Most toppings will stay fresh for 2–3 days in the fridge. Reassemble when ready to serve again.

Q6: Are hard boiled egg flights healthy snacks?

Yes! They’re protein-rich, naturally low in carbs, and can be customized to be keto, paleo, Whole30, or gluten-free. Skip mayo and use whole food toppings for a clean-eating snack.

Hard Boiled Egg Flight – The Best Mayo-Free Egg Snack Ideas

Ingredients

Scale

12 large eggs (5–7 days old)
Ice water for cooling
1 tsp sea salt or 1/2 tsp baking soda (optional, for easier peeling)
Mayo‑Free Toppings — choose 3–5 (≈ 2 tbsp each):
1/4 cup hummus
1/4 cup guacamole or smashed avocado
1/4 cup Greek yogurt mixed with 1 Tbsp sriracha + 1/2 tsp garlic powder (sriracha aioli)
2 Tbsp tahini whisked with 1 Tbsp lemon juice + pinch salt
1/4 cup tzatziki (dairy or coconut‑based)
Garnishes (to taste): za’atar, smoked paprika, everything bagel seasoning, fresh herbs, pickled red onion, microgreens, sesame seeds

Instructions

Place eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover with cold water 1 inch above the eggs.
Bring to a boil over medium‑high heat. Once boiling, cover, remove from heat, and let stand 10–12 minutes.
Transfer eggs to an ice bath for at least 5 minutes, then gently crack and peel under cool running water.
Slice eggs in half lengthwise and arrange on a serving board or egg tray.
Spoon or pipe selected mayo‑free toppings onto egg halves: hummus, guacamole, sriracha yogurt, tahini drizzle, or tzatziki.
Finish with desired garnishes—spices, fresh herbs, pickled onions—for color, crunch, and flavor. Serve warm, room temperature, or chilled.

Notes

Use eggs that are at least a week old—they peel more cleanly. Keep toppings and garnishes prepped in ramekins so guests can build their own combinations. For outdoor events, chill eggs and assemble toppings just before serving to maintain freshness.
