Since we are having a batch of these at dinner tonight I thought I would share my favorite deviled egg recipe. Again I was raised eating these and no one can seem to get enough. We all used to fight over them when the family got together. I miss the "Good Old Days" Thanks Mom and may you rest in peace.
