a classic crowd-pleaser

those are my eggs.  I touched up the
photo in Instagram.  I am proud of it.

Most folks like deviled eggs.  I know I do.  I actually prefer my eggs hard boiled, or poached hard.  I am not a fan of over easy or scrambled, which always seems to make for an interesting breakfast.  Truth be told, I would take lunch or dinner foods over breakfast foods any day.  I am not afraid to eat soup and a salad, or mashed potatoes and some baked chicken before 10:00 a.m. 

Two weekends ago my girlfriends and I got together for a Spring Tea Party.  I, of course, wanted to contribute and attempted to figure out a savory food item that was safe enough for me to make, instead of my normal baked good.  Although it was a risky move, I went with deviled eggs.  I made half spicy by adding a tablespoon of Sriracha to the filling, and the other half dilly by adding a teaspoon of dill.  They came out great, but I couldn’t help but think:  how can I make these healthier, aka without mayonnaise.  I don’t totally hate mayo (i.e., I love cole slaw, but would never ever put it on my sandwich).  I experimented last night and substituted the mayo with plain Greek yogurt.  The result wasn’t exceptional tasting, but it wasn’t bad.  I think if I added a touch more salt, things would have turned out better.  Next time I eat a few I think I am going to grab the salt grinder and sprinkle away.
