The Best Deviled Eggs Around
Spring time comes around, the flowers begin to bloom, allergies kick in, Easter and Mother’s Day seem like they’re a week apart and then both are quickly long gone! The last 2 years of these holidays haven’t felt quite the same as they once did since we can’t celebrate and gather like we’re used to. This doesn’t mean that we can’t keep the same delicious traditions to comfort us and give us all the feels. For Easter this year I decided to put a spin on a classic appetizer dish: The Deviled Egg. People loved them so much that now I’m sharing the recipe with you!
Ready to kick it up a little bit? Let’s dive right in!

- Mix in your mustard, mayo, chopped celery, green onion, pickle, and spices (about 1 tsp. of each, but go easy on the cayenne if you can't handle spice)
