Mexican Deviled Eggs
"I found this online when I was looking for a recipe for my sister. I copied it and then went back to looking for her recipe..lol. But, our family loves these. I know there will be some of you out there who won't care for them at all but that's ok. Everybody has different tastes! When I make them, I have to hide them in the fridge until dinner because my son and his friends will eat them all up before dinner and leave an empty plate on the counter.You can add a bit more mayonnaise if needed. Cook time is chill time and time for cooking the eggs.(10 for cooking the eggs, 10 for cooling and 30 for chilling the eggs). We sometimes have some of the filling left and My husband mixes it with chicken or tuna for a sandwich on toasted english muffins. (open faced)"

Loved the addition of the refried beans and green chiles in this variation. I omitted the salt (personal preference) and kept the olives out to use as garnish (made for a party with a lot of non-olive eaters, so it was easier for them to remove that way). Thanks for sharing!

I am married, have three children and two grandchildren. My youngest "oops" baby is just turning 17 and is going to be a senior in high school in the fall.. I love to cook and collect recipes. I get a lot of my good recipes from church potlucks. Since I am now retired and a stay at home mom, I have time to search the RecipeZaar site and try a lot of the recipes. We love living on the coast and would never move back inland!
