If you're looking for easy partyfood ideas, holiday party food ideas or healthy snack ideas that appeal to both adults and kids, you really can't go wrong with deviled eggs. Deviled eggs are always a popular choice, perhaps partly because of how incredibly easy they are to make. After all, making deviled eggs is simply a matter of hard boiling eggs, peeling them and slicing the cooked eggs in half, then combining the cooked yolks together with some other ingredients and returning that yolk mixture back to the hallowed-out cooked egg halves. In addition to being such an easy appetizer to make, deviled eggs are also a healthy source of
protein. Deviled eggs always make a great party appetizer, and can also be served for breakfast or with brunch, or as an easy snack for anytime that can be stored in the refrigerator for quite a few days.
Another great thing about deviled eggs is that they can be prepared in various ways, using a variety of different ingredients to create new and unique flavors and textures. If you've ever tried and enjoyed dips made with marinated artichokes and Parmesan cheese, you're going to enjoy these Parmesan Artichoke Deviled Eggs! This deviled egg recipe features cooked egg yolks combined with diced marinated artichoke hearts, grated Parmesan cheese and capers (optional), along with some mayonnaise, whipping cream, wine vinegar and seasoning (a little salt and pepper to taste). The kind of Parmesan cheese that comes finely grated in a jar (such as Kraft Parmesan Cheese) works best with this recipe rather than grating your own from a block of Parmesan, because the jarred type blends so well with the yolks and other ingredients, creating a creamier consistency. If you'd like, you can also top each deviled egg with a sprinkle of extra Parmesan cheese for flair and additional cheesy flavor.
