Deviled Eggs

This is sort of my base recipe for deviled eggs. I often vary it by adding herbs, blue cheese dressing, or even crab. I use sugar-free sweet relish, but you can leave it out or use dill relish - taste to see if it would be better with a tiny bit of sweetener.

Ingredients:

• 12 eggs, hard boiled
• 1/3 cup regular mayonnaise
• 2 T prepared mustard (yellow or brown)
• 1/4 cup sugar-free sweet pickle relish, or see note above
• A few drops of hot sauce
• Salt (about 1/4 teaspoon, or to taste)
• Pepper to taste
• 2 T chopped chives (not totally necessary, but good)
• Paprika, sweet, hot, or smoked, depending on your taste

Preparation:

1) Split hard-boiled eggs, and remove the yolks.

2) Mash the yolks with a fork, and mix with the other ingredients.

3) Fill the cavities in the egg white, smoothing the mixture over the top (or pipe it in, or however you want to do it).

4) Sprinkle paprika over the top.
