Ingredients

• 6 large eggs
• 3 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt (non-fat or low-fat)
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoons paprika (for garnish)
• 1 tablespoon chives or parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Place the eggs in a medium-sized saucepan and cover them with water so there's about 1 inch of water above the eggs.

Step 2

Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the eggs simmer gently for 9-10 minutes.

Step 3

Carefully drain the hot water and transfer the eggs to an ice bath (a bowl filled with ice water) to stop the cooking. Let the eggs sit in the ice bath for 10 minutes to cool completely.

Step 4

Peel the cooled eggs by gently tapping the shell on a hard surface and rolling it under your hand to loosen the shells. Remove the shells and rinse the eggs to remove any shell fragments.

Step 5

Slice each egg in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop the yolks into a medium mixing bowl, and place the egg whites on a serving platter.

Step 6

Using a fork, mash the yolks until they are crumbly and smooth. Add the Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Mix until the filling is well-combined and creamy.

Step 7

Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the hollowed centers of the egg whites, dividing it evenly among all the eggs.

Step 8

Sprinkle the tops with paprika, and garnish with chopped chives or parsley, if desired.

Step 9

Serve immediately, or chill in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before serving.
