Devilish Eggs

29 Jun

These make a fantastic 4th-of-July potluck item.  Unless, of course, like me, you somehow manage to eat most of them before you get there.

Ingredients:
– 6 hardboiled eggs (or however many you want to make)
– 1 green onion, sliced thinly
– 1 sprig of cilantro, finely chopped
– 1/2 a juicy lime, juiced
– 2 green, jalepeno-stuffed olives, finely chopped
– about 2 tablespoons of mayonaise
– a dash of salt, chipotle chili powder, and smoked paprika

Steps:

1.  Cut the eggs in half lengthwise and scoop out the yolks

2.  Smash the yolks together with all of the rest of the ingredients until it forms a smooth paste

3.  Scoop the paste back into the hollows in the halved whites

4.  Arrange on a plate and add an extra dash of paprika on top for a pretty finish

These also make a great quick snack if you keep them in the fridge (way better than grabbing a handful of chips)!

Enjoy, and happy 4th!
