• Ready In: 10 mins
• Serves: 6
• Yields: 6 egg halves

Ingredients

• 6  hard-boiled eggs, peeled and halved lengthwise
• 1⁄3 cup  reduced-calorie mayonnaise
• 2  tablespoons low fat cottage cheese, drained (one reader suggested ricotta cheese instead)
• 2  tablespoons  sweet pickle relish
• 2  tablespoons mustard
•  salt & pepper, to taste
•  paprika, for sprinkling
•  parsley sprig, for garnish (optional)

Directions

1. Place three of the egg yolks in a bowl (save the others for use in another recipe), and mash them. Add the mayonnaise, cheese, sweet pickle relish, mustard and salt & pepper to taste. Mix all the ingredients together. The texture needs to be firm enough to pipe back into egg halves with a pastry bag or with a spoon.
2. Spoon or pipe (with star tip) filling into egg whites, then sprinkle with the paprika. Garnish with the parsley, if desired.
3. Refrigerate, covered, until ready to serve.
