These adorable baby chicks are a festive addition to an Easter brunch or springtime celebration. Parmesan cheese adds a zingy zest to the great flavor of deviled eggs. They provide a fun way to use those hard boiled eggs left behind by the Bunny. Kids can help by mashing the yolks, shaping the egg balls, and inserting the eyes and beaks while you serrate the edges of the whites. What fun to see these cute little cheepers at your breakfast table.
