spicy blt deviled eggs
deviled eggs have ALWAYS been one of my favorite snacks. they were one of the first dishes i ever learned to make. every year on easter, once the egg hunt was over, all i could think about was the deviled eggs. so i had my mom teach me so i wouldn't have to wait. i'm sure she was just happy to have one more task off her plate, but i was happy to whip up the eggs and then gobble up so many that i felt sick and ate little for dinner. worth it every time.
but now, my eyes are open to all the amazing things that a deviled egg can be. sure, the classic version is pretty tasty, but imagine how much tastier they could be with spicy garlic sauce in the filling and covered with sweet and salty bacon, tomato and arugula. i know it doesn't sound possible, but they are even better than you imagine.
