These days I like to take the eggs and make these spicy deviled eggs. Perfect as an appetizer or a side dish for your next BBQ. I first had these delicious eggs at a potluck carry in at my husband's college. One of the administrative assistants brought them in. She gave me the recipe but I lost it. I thought I could come up with something that would get me the same flavor profile. I also thought that I didn't want to lose my mom's egg salad taste, so I came up with using pickled jalapenos instead of pickles in the mix.
Hope you enjoy them as much as I do!
Jalapeno Cilantro Deviled Eggs
by
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Ingredients (one dozen halves)
- 6 hard boiled eggs, peeled and halved lengthwise, yolks and whites separated
- 3 T good mayonnaise
- 1 t yellow mustard
- 1/8 t salt
- 1 T pickled jalapenos, chopped fine
- 2 T chopped cilantro
- 1/4 t cumin
Instructions
Place egg whites in an egg plate with hollow centers pointing up. Put yolks in a bowl, add mayo, mustard, salt, cumin and chopped jalapenos. If mixture seems too thick, add a small amount of jalapeno juice from the jar until desired consistency. Smash until yolks are creamy. Place spoonfuls of the mixture into the egg white hollows. You can use a decorator's tube as well. Top with chopped cilantro. Refrigerate until use.
