by skipp84, 4/26/2011Everyone loved these as an Easter appetizer-even the self-professed smoked salmon haters. Could have easily doubled the recipe. The balsamic capers I used added an extra layer of flavor.

by pookie3460, 4/25/2011Excellent recipe. I prefer my Deviled Eggs a bit lighter on the mayo. I used just enough mayo to bind the other ingredients together. Flavors were bold and distinct. Yum!!! my new go to recipe.

by ahroberts, 3/28/2010I have made these several times for parties and they are always the first to go!

by HueLien, 12/25/2009Who would want deviled eggs any other way after having them with smoked salmon. This is an incredibly easy way to put the festive back into eggs!
