Devilled Eggs


Devilled eggs, along with many old-fashioned comfort dishes, are popular again. They are perfect for brunch or they make a great appetizer.Using yogurt instead of mayonnaise lowers the fat and calorie count as well as adding valuable calcium and B vitamins to this recipe

Devilled eggs recipe

Ingredients:
12 organic or omega 3 eggs
1/4 cup plain organic yogurt
1 Tbsp. mild curry paste
1 tsp. sea salt
1 tsp. paprika or very finely chopped cilantro

1.Place eggs gently in a large saucepan of boiling salted water.When the water returns to a boil, cover and turn off heat.Let eggs sit in the water for 15 minutes.
(This technique for cooking hard-boiled eggs prevents a green ring from forming around the yolks).
2.Drain eggs and shake pan gently to crack the shells.Cover with cold water and chill.Gently remove shells.
3.Cut eggs in half crosswise and gently scoop out yolks.Place whites, cut side up, on a tray.Trim round bottoms slightly,if necessary,so they can stand up.
4.Mash yolks with yogurt, curry paste and salt, to taste.Pipe or spoon back into the egg whites.Dust lightly with paprika using a fine sieve, or sprinkle with cilantro.

Makes 24...

When I was growing up my mom would only make these for special occasions. Don't wait, treat yourself and make them for no reason. Your family will thank you for making them feel so special...

Enjoy!!!
