Made half a recipe for the 2 of us & for a test run, & we liked them sooo much that I'm scheduling 'em for being made the very next time I host one of my monthly groups! Definitely a top-notch recipe, what with the great taste & healthy aspect! Thanks for sharing it! [Made & reviewed in Went to the Market recipe tag] -
these are terrific eggs and taste like regular. great snacks, if you can stop yourself from eating them all at once :) -
This recipe was a HUGE hit! It tastes the same as regular deviled eggs, but it's healthier. Also super easy to make! -
These are a nice change when you are watching cholesterol a bit - so you don't have to totally avoid the deciled eggs! I liked these with a tad more mustard for my taste. I also used some left over garlic mashed potatoes that had some chives and white pepper in them already which lended a nice kick up too. I would make these again especially for some of my family gathering where I know the healthful option is appreciated!! ;) Thanks for a great, flavorful recipe, Nyte!! -

These were very good, but I really like your other recipe better. The flavor was good though. Thanks.

Married mother of twins. I very seldom ever use recipes as they are written, always modifying and adjusting them. Many times I will take three or four different recipes and come up with a new recipe based on those.
