Baby Turkey Deviled Eggs

I've tried a couple different recipes this last week, but several of them have fallen flat on their faces. Yucky. But we won't talk about overly salty pork chops or stuffing that had the consistency of... something very yucky... Haha! You'll never try anything new if you can't laugh at yourself!

The one new recipe I tried that I didn't think was awful was my Turkey Deviled Eggs. I made them for our church Thanksgiving meal and they turned out to be quite a hit - mostly with the kids. If you're reading this and you're thinking, "Deviled Eggs? My four year old can make deviled eggs!" than I'm asking you to understand that I am not a world famous chef and don't aspire to be. I figure if I have to make something for everyone to eat, they might forgive the flavor if it's fun to look at! Fortunately these didn't taste too bad. Nothing special - eggs, mayo, mustard, salt, vinegar, and quite a bit of time. (Sonya was not very happy about that!) And for the eyes and nose I used chocolate covered raisins and carrots. I will probably never make these again since they take about twice as long (maybe three times as long) as regular deviled eggs, but like I said, the kids loved them.

Right after I started making them I wondered, "Are baby turkeys even yellow?" But it was too late to change my plan. If baby turkeys actually hatched green and purple, I was still going to tell the kids that these were baby turkeys. However, I was relieved to find out afterwards that baby turkeys are yellow! Whew! 

So excited for Thanksgiving, and having Matt's family here! What a wonderful time of the year! Stay safe, but have fun!
