I never really thought of my deviled eggs as anything special or noteworthy, but they are one thing that are requested frequently when I'm asked to bring something to a gathering. When I make them for the two of us at home, Better Half gobbles them up so quickly that I generally only get one or two before they are gone. I'd make them more often if I didn't have to peel the darn hard boiled eggs first! I often eat a couple of these for breakfast, along with a Dannon carb control yogurt.
Low Carb Deviled Eggs
Ingredients
12 hard boiled eggs
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup prepared yellow mustard
1/2 tsp celery salt
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp ground mustard seed
1/4 tsp black pepper
Paprika
1) Peel your hard boiled eggs and split them in half, removing the yolks to a separate bowl.
2) Add all ingredients except paprika to bowl and mash together with a fork until everything is fully incorporated into the yolks.
3) Fill the egg yolk halves with the yolk mixture. I use a spoon and don't worry about fancy presentation by piping it prettily into the cavity.
4) Sprinkle with paprika.
5) Eat a couple before everyone else gets their grubby hands on them and they disappear!
I usually end up with 22 egg halves from this (inevitably, one egg white is destroyed while peeling). These eggs are a little tangy with the additional mustard--just how we love them. If you want less mustard flavor, increase the mayo and decrease the mustard by equal amounts. Feel free to adjust the seasonings to your taste.
