Avoid Mayo for Creamiest Deviled Eggs.
These bite-sized treats can be made in advance, and you probably have a secret ingredient that you can use to make your own version of deviled eggs.
Plus, they are perfect for sharing with friends and family. Now I know how to make that dish really shine.
If you want flavorful, creamy deviled eggs, all you have to do is switch out one ingredient.
The original deviled egg recipe calls for mayonnaise, which not only thickens and smoothes out the mixture, but also keeps the filling from drying up and crumbling.
But it's really high in calories. There are 680 calories in 100 grams of mayonnaise, as reported by the USDA.
According to the USDA, you can reduce the calorie count to 198 per 100 grams by substituting sour cream for mayo.
A third of mayo's calories are included in it. Finally, sour cream adds a velvety texture and a burst of flavor to deviled eggs.
