8 hard boiled eggs

Cut the peeled eggs in half, remove the yolks, and place them in a bowl. Set the egg halves aside.



Using a fork, smash the yolks. Stir in the aioli a tablespoon at a time until the mixture is smooth and reaches the desired consistency. 

Fill the egg halves, sprinkle with parsley, and serve.
