Crab Claw Deviled Eggs
Deviled eggs are always delicious, and you can dress them up in a lot of variations. I like them as an appetizer, and they’re especially good when you’re preparing an Easter brunch – it’s never too early to start planning a menu – as a way to use those extra hard-boiled eggs.
This version is elevated with the addition of some crab meat I got on sale at the seafood counter. Yes, crab meat can be expensive, but it elevates these deviled eggs to a level worth splurging just a bit. In a pinch (hello, pantry recipes), you could use canned.
