Deviled Eggs Recipe / Hard Boiled Egg Ideas

Here are a bunch of recipes. Just substitute plain or Greek yogurt or sour cream in the ones that have mayonnaise in them.

Jalapeno Pickled Eggs
Makes 6 eggs

3/4 cup cider vinegar
3/4 cup water
1/2 cup plus 1 Tbsp white granulated sugar
6 cloves
2 jalapeno peppers, sliced in half lengthwise, seeds removed and discarded
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 bay leaf
1/2 teaspoon dry oregano
1/4 onion, sliced
1 garlic clove, peeled
6 small or medium hard cooked eggs**, peeled

Tarragon Pickled Eggs
Makes 6 eggs

3/4 cup cider vinegar
3/4 cup water
1/4 onion, sliced
2 sprigs fresh tarragon
1 teaspoon mustard seeds
1/2 cup plus 1 Tbsp white granulated sugar
1 teaspoon herbs de provence
6 small or medium hard cooked eggs**, peeled

**Boil or steam the small or medium eggs until hard cooked. To steam the eggs, place in a steamer rack over boiling water, cover and steam for 20 minutes. Remove from heat and rinse with cold water. To boil the eggs, cover with 2 inches of cold water in a saucepan, bring to a boil, cover, remove from heat, and let sit for 12 minutes, then rinse with cold water. Hard boiling works best with eggs at least a week old, otherwise they may be difficult to peel. Steaming works great with fresh eggs.

Method
1. Peel the eggs and place in the bottom of a clean glass jar, quart sized.
2. In a medium saucepan, add the vinegar, water (or beet juice if using), the onion (and jalapeno if using), sugar, and spices. Bring to a boil and cook, uncovered, until the sugar has dissolved and the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool a few minutes.
3. Pour the vinegar onion mixture over the eggs in the jar, covering the eggs completely. If you are making the beet pickled eggs, place some or all of the cooked beets in with the eggs in the jar (this will help to bring color to the eggs, and you will have pickled beets as well.) Secure close the jar's cover. Refrigerate up to a month.
The pickled eggs will be ready to eat after a few days. The longer the eggs sit in the pickling juice, the more the pickling juice will penetrate the eggs.

Chipotle Lime Deviled Eggs
Makes 12

6 eggs (preferably about a week old)
2 T mayo
2 T fat-free plain yogurt
2 T fresh lime juice
1 T yellow mustard (not Dijon)
1/4 tsp. ground Chipotle chile peppers (Could substitute hot paprika for a slightly different taste.)
1/2 tsp. salt
2 green onions, green part only, finely chopped

First, make perfect hard-boiled eggs. Let eggs cool, then peel and cut in half crosswise. While eggs are cooling, slice green onions, and finely chop with chef's knife. When eggs are quite cool, carefully remove yolks and put into small bowl. Mash yolks well with a fork.

Mix together lime juice and Chipotle chile powder. (If you don't do this, you'll have large flecks of chile powder in the deviled yolk mixture. The chile powder won't dissolve completely, but adding it to the lime juice does make it blend in better.) Add lime-Chipotle mixture to mashed yolks, then stir in mayo, mustard, plain yogurt, salt, and half the chopped green onions. Taste for seasoning to see if you want more mustard, Chipotle chile powder, or salt. Stir until mixture is well combined.

Arrange eggs white halves on serving plate. Use a rubber scraper to scoop yolk mixture into a small plastic bag. Cut a small piece off one corner of the bag and squeeze from the top to force the yolk mixture out the hole, into the egg halves. (This can also be done with a spoon or a cake decorating tool.) When all egg white shells are filled with deviled yolk mixture, sprinkle with remaining chopped green onions. Serve immediately.

This sounds really good....will have to try!!!

I make egg salad that is LOW in calories like this:

2-3 eggs, but use only one of the yolks.

2 wedges of laughing cow cheese,
(white cheddar flaovor is good, so is chipotle, so is blue cheese flavor. Plain swiss flavor if you want to season it youself.)

smash it all up together and put it on a sandwich thin.....really tasty egg salad for only around 300 calories total.

The avocado egg salad is my all time favorite! Just sayin
