Blue Ribbon Recipe

Add a bit of Mexican flair to your deviled eggs with a twist. They pack a big punch of flavor from the fresh and pickled jalapenos along with the pickled jalapeno juice. The filling is super creamy. Sprinkling cilantro on tops adds freshness and flavor to the deviled eggs. Make these ahead of time because they're even better after they've chilled several hours. Serve these as a side dish with a taco bar and margaritas or a Cinco de Mayo gathering. Different and delicious!
