Made these twice for parties, and they were a hit--disappeared immediately! The second time, I used juice from the pickled okra jar instead of vinegar and added Tony Cachere's Creole Seasoning instead of salt and other spices. I actually prefer to skip the cream cheese, as it detracts from the fluffiness I like in a deviled egg. The slice of okra on top makes these look quite festive.
