Notes

This recipe can easily be modified to be larger or smaller batch.  There is no exact measurements for this recipe and is all on your taste and will depend on how many eggs you are doing.   Start with less mayonnaise and add as required for consistency and taste.  You don't want the yolk mixture too runny or too dry.  Easier to add than remove.  
If you don't care for onions, no need to add. 
You can use commercial mayonnaise only for this recipe but I always use a mix of commercial and my homemade mayonnaise for a tangy and sweet filling.  
You could also garnish with green onions!
Piping tip:  place your filling in a sandwich ziplock.  Remove as much air as you can.  Clip one corner and start piping.
