Grasshopper Pie

Today is the Sunday closest to my son’s birthday, so he gets to pick the menu. I knew that ribs were going to be the main attraction. Last night I was thinking about a great appetizer we could enjoy right when he gets home from the Bears game today. He is there with his grandfather and uncle on this beautiful, sunny, first full Sunday of the NFL schedule.

What could be better than finding another vehicle for delivering the great taste of Pimento cheese? Deviled eggs make an excellent platform for the rich, tangy flavors found in this recipe. When jalapeño is added for a kick, well, these eggs make themselves downright irresistible.
