This recipe is presented by Eggland’s Best.

Salt, pepper, mayonnaise, and paprika don’t always cut it when it comes to deviled eggs.

Using fresh, refrigerated salsa gives the egg yolk filling a zesty zing that makes this picnic staple more exciting. If you’re not making your own salsa, look for fresh, pre-made salsa in your grocery store’s deli section. Mild, medium, or hot: It’s your choice.

And sour cream lends a more Southwestern-style creaminess.
