I just recently started using this recipe after using one from another food diva for years. My son-in-law says these are the best he has ever tasted and there are NEVER any leftovers.

These are the absolute best deviled eggs I have ever had. The adding of the sweet pickles & relish really gives it a perfect flavor. I have been making them bimonthly, just for our own delicious consumption!
