Pimento Cheese Deviled Eggs
“I’m back with another egg-citing twist on a classic dish, pimento cheese deviled eggs! The inspiration came from a local wine bar my husband and I love. The bar has a cheese board we order all of the time, with homemade pimento cheese and pickled okra. I just can’t get over the flavor combo. So, I decided to have some fun and drop a few egg-ceptional puns where I could. Sorry, I’m definitely not sorry!”
