I made this leaving out the ham and using a little more walnuts. Delicious! Thanks Jen!

Made these more as a trial run & was so pleased wit them that I'll be adding them to my next finger food buffet when I host the next of several monthly meetings! I usually stick with sweet pickles, but a small slice of gherkin on each of these added a great boost! I did season with lemon pepper rather than the usual S&P! Thanks for sharing the recipe!

These were so yummy! I' don't love devilled eggs, but I really enjoyed these. I didn't have ham, I did add a splash of lemon juice and then topped it with a sliver of baby dill pickle for garnish. The crunch was awesome and the flavors were a great combination. Thanks for posting. These are probably going to be my "go - to" devilled egg recipe for holidays and parties!

We're always looking for new deviled egg recipes... thanks for a great one! I used leftover honey ham in these tasty bites. I omitted the mustard (personal preference) and used a little extra mayo and vinegar to make up the difference. Instead of gherkins, I garnished with some green onion. It made a lovely sweet, salty, sour, and spicy combo!
