I have a great women's fellowship church group that meets monthly for crucial "moms' night out." This past week we had a Halloween party, complete with costumes (I'm sad to say I didn't have it in me for a costume that night) and themed snacky snacks. For my contribution, I made deviled eyeballs. Basically, I made deviled eggs with a green olive half on top. Simple, sweet (savory actually) and lip-smackin' good! Here we go:
12 eggs, boiled and peeled
2T yellow mustard
1/4-1/2 C mayonaise, start with a little and add until you get the desired consistency
1 t chopped capers, plus 1 t caper liquid
4-6 chives, chopped
Ground black pepper and sea salt
24 green olives with pimentos, halved
Paprika, for dusting
Halve eggs and remove yolks to a medium mixing bowl. Add mustard and 1/4 C mayo and mix. Add remaining ingredients except paprika and mix. Add remaining mayo as needed. Spoon or pipe into egg white halves (I used a small melon baller and it worked excellently). Arrange an olive half on top of each egg so that it looks like an eyeball (if making eyeballs). Sprinkle with paprika = bloodshot eyeballs! Sccccaaarrrryyyy good!
Note: these are pretty tangy eggs. If you are a fan of the sweet eggs (with sweet relish) you may not approve but I'm a savory girl and thought these were just perfect!
