I have always used this recipe and it is always a hit.

I never use pickle relish. I also use lemon juice to cut some of the "sharp" taste of mayo. I like to use ranch dressing, because a friend is allergic to mustard. I never bring home any, because they just disappear. So these may be great, however I am sticking with my recipe. Thanks Mr. Food for all the hard work this past year.

Why bother commenting if you did not even use this recipe? I do not care how you make yours and that you think yours are superior to this recipe. Get a life! What an insult to Mr. Food!

This exactly the way my mother and her mother made deviled eggs, except we never put the relish in them unless we were making egg salad, they taste so good
