Bacon, Tomato and Balsamic Deviled Eggs

     It's Mother's Day weekend and Im visiting my family in MD.  My sister is having dinner at her house for dinner and asked me to figure out an appetizer or two as well as desert.  Desert was easy.  Im making my (Almost) Sugar Free Yogurt Cake and serving it with fresh fruit and fat free cool whip.  I searched for a sugar free cool whip but didn't find one at the local store so the 1 gram in the fat free will have to do.

     As for the appetizers I immediately took to Pinterest where I tend to find most of my bariatric inspirations.  I came across the following recipe and modified it to my personal taste.  So heres my take on appetizers & snack foods!


Bacon, Tomato & Balsamic Deviled Eggs
Servings: 12 (2 deviled eggs)
Total Cooking/Baking Time: 16 Minutes
This recipe is modified from the original found here.

Ingredients:
  • 12 Eggs
  • 1/3 Cup Helmans Light Mayonnaise 
  • 1/3 Cup Plain greek Yogurt
  • 2 teaspoons Sugar Substitute (I use a Stevia product)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Balsamic Vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon Celery Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 6 Slices Cooked Bacon, Finely Chopped
  • 2 Medium Roma Tomatoes, Cut In Half Seeda Removed, & Finely Diced


Directions:

  1. Place the eggs in a large pot in a single layer and fill with cold water to cover by one inch. Bring the water to a boil, cover the pot, remove from the heat, and let the eggs cook undisturbed in the hot water for 16 minutes.
  2. Drain the hot water and cool the eggs by running cold water over them in the pan. Peel and halve lengthwise. 
  3. Separate the yolks from the whites, place the yolks in a bowl; arrange the egg whites on a serving platter .
  4. Chop the bacon and then the roma tomatoes, separately, in a small food chopper. 
  5. Add the mayonnaise, yogurt, Sugar Substitute, vinegar, celery salt, and pepper, bacon and diced tomato to a large bowl and mix with an electric hand mixer till thoroughly combined. 
  6. Evenly divide and spoon the mixture into the egg whites OR spoon the mixture into a plastic bag and snip the corner in order to neatly pipe the filling into the egg whites.
  7. Chill until serving.
