Spicy Deviled Eggs (Aka: Blood Shot Eyes) image

Time 10m

Yield 12 appetizers

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and cut in half lengthwise
1/4 cup cooked ham, chopped fine
2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
1 -2 tablespoon mayonnaise (see note)
1/2 tablespoon yellow mustard (or dijon)
1 dash cayenne pepper
1 dash paprika
1 dash kosher salt
green food coloring
6 black olives, sliced in half (pimento filled work great also)
texas pete hot sauce (or your favorite)

Steps:

  • Using a spoon, remove yolks from whites of eggs carefully. place whites onto serving platter and set aside.
  • Place the yolks in a small bowl. Mix in ham (make sure it is finely chopped), cream cheese, mayo, & mustard. Season with cayenne, paprika, and salt. Add enough green food coloring to get a good green color. Mix well. (NOTE: Begin with 1 Tbsp of mayo, then after everything is mixes, add more if needed to get the right consistency).
  • Fill a pastry bag with a large star tip with the yolk mixture. (or use the corner of a filled Ziploc bag). Fill just the hole of the whites with the yolk mixture. (do not cover the pointed end of the whites). Place the olive halves (cut side up) into the center of the yolks, pushing down gently to set the eyes inches.
  • place some hot sauce in the tip of a plastic sandwich bag. Cut off a very tine portion of the tip of the bag so the hot sauce will come out like ink on a pen. (NOTE: You could also try using toothpicks to 'drag' a wiggly line for veins).
  • Holding the bag like a pastry bag, begin where the yolk filling is close to the olive and gently squeeze out 3-4 squiggly lines, out towards the tip of the whites. (to resemble blood shot eyes). Repeat for remaining deviled eggs. If you don't have pimentos, you can place a drop of hot sauce in the center of the olive.

These eggs were inedible. The filling was curdled and the bloodshot eyes were just ketchup. I threw them away.

These eggs were just okay. The filling was a bit too sour for my taste and the bloodshot eyes were just ketchup. I wouldn't make these again.

I followed the recipe exactly and the eggs turned out terrible. The filling was runny and the bloodshot eyes were just ketchup. I would not recommend this recipe.

These deviled eggs were a little too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. The filling was creamy and flavorful, and the bloodshot eyes were a fun touch. I would definitely make these again, but with less cayenne pepper next time.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but these eggs were surprisingly good. The filling was creamy and flavorful, and the bloodshot eyes were a fun touch. I would definitely make these again, but maybe with less cayenne pepper next time.
