My grandma has had a deviled egg recipe for as long as I can remember. Although she passed away a couple of years ago, I love that her memory can live on every time I bring her classic recipe to a party, pitch-in or holiday feast.
But sometimes, it is fun to take tradition and add a little modern flair to it. I’m sure my grandma would approve! So, with that inspiration, I thought it would be fun to make spicy version of her deviled eggs and thus these Cajun deviled eggs are the perfect recipe!

My husband is famous for putting a TON of hot sauce on his eggs. He loves spicy scrambled eggs, spicy fried eggs and spicy omelettes. So, I’m assuming he would love a spicy deviled egg! Eggs go great with a little bit of heat (or, for my husband A LOT of heat). This Cajun Deviled Egg recipe has just the right amount of heat for me. It’s not overpowering but it definitely gives this dish a little kick!
