Ingredients

• 8 large eggs
• 2 extra large egg whites
• 0.5 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon white vinegar
• 0.5 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons green onions, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon parsley, for garnish

Directions

Step 1

Place the 8 large eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover with water by about 1 inch.

Step 2

Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and let the eggs simmer for 10 minutes.

Step 3

While the eggs cook, lightly whisk the 2 extra large egg whites in a small non-stick skillet over medium heat until they are fully cooked, about 3-4 minutes. Set aside to cool.

Step 4

Once the eggs are cooked, transfer them immediately to a bowl of ice water. Let them cool for at least 10 minutes.

Step 5

Gently tap each egg on a hard surface to crack the shell and peel under cold running water to help remove the shell more easily.

Step 6

Slice the eggs in half lengthwise and remove the yolks. Transfer the yolks to a mixing bowl.

Step 7

Finely chop the cooked extra egg whites and add them to the bowl with the yolks.

Step 8

Add Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, white vinegar, paprika, salt, and black pepper to the yolk mixture.

Step 9

Mash the yolk mixture with a fork until smooth and creamy.

Step 10

Stir in the finely chopped green onions.

Step 11

Using a small spoon or a piping bag, fill each egg white half with the egg yolk mixture.

Step 12

Garnish each deviled egg with a sprinkle of parsley.

Step 13

Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
