The presentation of these deviled eggs makes this recipe look complicated, but we made it easy by buying hash browns to cut down on prep time.

For our springtime table we used mini cake pans and a cupcake tree to create an elevated display for these nifty nests. But you can use a cake pedestal or anything you have on hand to give these eggs in a nest the attention they deserve!
