Deviled Eggs or ‘Eggs Mimosa’ have been popular canapés at cocktail parties for years, and they are absolutely perfect for this easter holiday buffet. You can make the classic version or let your imagination take your taste buds for a ride like I did. 
Deviled eggs are hard-boiled eggs, cut in half and traditionally filled with the yolks mixed with mustard and mayonnaise with paprika sprinkled on top. I made three different versions – The 50′ classic where I threw some caviar on top for extra elegance, a southern version with bacon and a spicy mexican with cilantro, jalapeño and shrimp. I hope you will find my new versions of an old classic inspiring, and that you will try them all and surprise your holiday guests with these inexpensive and tasty treats.
