Ingredients
- 5 hard boiled eggs
- ¼ cup Greek-style plain yogurt (or another thick yogurt)
- 1¼ cup loosely packed cilantro leaves
- 1½ teaspoons chipotle chiles in adobo sauce, finely chopped
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- ⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- about 1 tablespoon tomato, finely chopped
Instructions
- Cut each hard boiled egg in half lengthwise and carefully remove the cooked yolks.
- Place all of the yolks in the food processor along with the yogurt, cilantro, chipotles, salt and cayenne.Blend until it's as smooth as possible. If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the cilantro as finely as you can and mix everything together in a mixing bowl. (Reserve a couple of cilantro sprigs for garnish if desired.)
- Place the emptied egg white halves on a serving platter or plate and use a small cookie scoop (about 1¼ inch), or a pastry bag, to fill each one. (You can also cut about ¼ inch off the corner of a zip-lock bag and it will work as a pastry bag.)
- Place the eggs in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes.
- Garnish with the chopped tomato and cilantro leaves and serve.
