This is a winner. A friend is also making it for Easter and she added a dash of Tabasco. Loved the addition of Tabasco. I was able to get some very fresh Jumbo Lump so I used that.

I've made similar to this. An easy way is to place the yolks and other additives in a relosable plastic storage bag to mix. Massage until mix is uniform, cut a corner and squirt into the whites, then discard the emptied bag.
