Yummy Zested Deviled Eggs image

When I saw the ingredients for the RSC contest(Feb. 2010), this came to mind. I love the lemon zest in this and the smoked paprika is so good! This recipe is easily doubled or tripled.

1 tablespoon green onion, thinly sliced

  • Bring to a full boil over medium heat,then boil for 2 more minutes.
  • Remove from heat and cover with a lid.

These deviled eggs are a bit too rich for my taste. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I'm not sure what happened, but my deviled eggs turned out bland. I think I might have forgotten to add the salt.

I added a little bit of chopped bacon to the deviled egg filling. It gave them a nice smoky flavor.

I'm not a fan of lemon zest, so I omitted it from the recipe. The deviled eggs were still delicious.
