Steps:
- Halve the eggs lengthwise and transfer the yolks to a mixing bowl. Set the egg white halves on a platter, cover, and refrigerate.
- With a fork, mash the yolks to a smooth consistency. Add the mayonnaise, mustard, garlic, and pesto, and mix until smooth. (You can also do this using an electric mixer with a whip attachment.) Stir in the green onion. Taste the egg mixture and add a little salt if needed; pestos differ in salt content.
- Spoon the mixture into a pastry bag fitted with a plain or large star tip, then pipe the mixture evenly into the egg white halves. Or fill the eggs with a spoon, dividing the filling evenly.
- To make the topping, in a small bowl, mix together the prosciutto and basil. Drizzle with the oil and toss to coat. Top each egg half with about 1 heaping teaspoon of the mixture.

Steps:
- 1. Put the eggs in a saucepan and add cold water to 1 inch above the eggs. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer the eggs for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and run cool water over the eggs in the pan until they are cooled. When cool, carefully peel them under running water. 2. Cut the eggs in half lengthwise and transfer the yolks to a bowl. Set the egg white halves on a platter, cover and refrigerate. 3. With a fork or potato masher, mash the yolks to a smooth consistency. Mix in the mayonnaise, garlic, mustard and pesto until smooth. Stir in the green onions. You can do these steps in a mixer with a whip attachment. Different pestos have different salt content; taste the egg mixture and add a little salt if needed. 4. Spoon the mixture into a pastry bag fitted with a plain or large star tip, then squeeze (pipe) the mixture evenly into the reserved egg white halves. 5. To make the topping, mix the prosciutto and basil in a small bowl. Drizzle with the olive oil and toss to coat. Top each egg half with about a heaping teaspoon of the mixture. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.
