Ingredients
- 10 egg peeled, hard-boiled
- 3 tablespoons cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup pimento cheese shredded
- 1/4 cup Monterey jack cheese shredded
- 2 tablespoons pimento pepper diced
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon Chives, chopped
- 1 teaspoon parsley chopped
- salt
- black pepper
Instructions
- Use a sharp knife to slice the peeled eggs in half, lengthwise.
- Carefully scoop the yolks out of the egg white and place them into the bowl of a blender. Then arrange the whites onto a plate.
- Add the rest of the ingredients into the bowl of the blender along with the egg yolks. Blend until smooth.
- Scoop the yolk mix into a piping bag.
- Pipe the yolk mix into the egg whites and decorate with the rest of the paprika.

Notes
- Serve chilled. The time spent in the fridge will make the eggs easier to handle and allow the flavors to meld.
- Save some pimento peppers and use them as garnish, setting one atop each egg.
- If you aren't bothered about the refined appearance the piping bag can provide, roughly mash your mix with a fork, leaving chunks of the cheese and pepper present. The change in texture might be appreciated.
