These Tuna Luna Deviled Eggs are inspired by a sandwich I had as a kid called a “Tuna Luna.” It was made out of tuna, mayonnaise, and relish on an English muffin. I’ve incorporated all of those familiar flavors into a deviled egg!

Deviled eggs are an absolute staple for games, events, and holidays around here. Â And while the classic deviled egg is always great, I love to change things up by using different flavors. Â These Tuna Luna Deviled Eggs remind me of those sandwiches I had as a kid, but also of tuna salads!
Cooking and peeling hard boiled eggs can be….challenging.  You can see a couple of these eggs were “difficult.”  I do love to purchase the pre-boiled, pre-peeled eggs that you can find at your grocery store to make assembly even faster and the eggs a perfect shape.  They won’t have the bumps and divots that you see here! 😀
I always worry about not having enough food at any gathering, so I tend to over-cook and make a lot! Â And making more than needed is great when you can repurpose those leftovers. Â So when it comes to Tuna Luna Deviled Eggs, I make a bunch! Â The leftover eggs can easily be smashed and used as a tuna salad for sandwiches, salads, or as a snack!
