Deviled Eggs with Prosciutto Appetizer

Recipe Level: Intermediate

Whether you’re heading to a family get-together or hosting a rowdy football party for a large group, these deviled prosciutto and eggs with sage are a soon-to-be fan favorite. Crispy Prosciutto di Parma paired with tangy lemon zest gives your grandmother’s typical deviled eggs a run for their money.  Not to mention they’re the perfect size to have the whole dozen to yourself without all the guilt (maybe not, but they’re that good).
