Rick's Extra Devilish Eggs

Submitted by rickscott

"Last Thanksgiving I was adding the finishing touch to my deviled eggs and after I sprinkled the last one I noticed that my paprika was cayenne pepper. Luckily my Ex (Yes my Ex, Susan and her husband Neal are our friends and are invited for the holidays) had some with paprika for the faint of heart. My two sons liked the extra devilish ones so much they requested them for Christmas."

These are awesome. I added a little extra salt, lemon, and mayo, and threw some paprika on top along with the cayenne. Very tasty.

This recipe is proof that not all mistakes have unpleasant results. :) Loved the cayenne pepper (I added more after I took the photo:)!! I added extra mayo to make the filling a bit creamier, and didn't add lemon juice, but did add a touch of Dijon. The cayenne was a wonderful complement to the eggs--thanks for sharing!
