What To Serve With It
When I’m planning a meal or snack, I always like to think about how different dishes can complement each other, and deviled eggs are no exception. They pair perfectly with crisp veggies like celery or cucumber slices, adding a fresh crunch.
For heartier options, try serving them alongside grilled chicken or a simple pasta salad. If it’s a party, I love pairing them with salty snacks like pretzels or crackers—they balance the creamy richness.
And don’t forget a tangy pickle or two for a zesty contrast. The key is keeping things light and balanced, so the flavors shine without overpowering each other.
