RECIPE BACKSTORY
I saw this recipe on Food Network ("Healthy Appetite" With Ellie Krieger) and was curious enough to copy it down. I finally made these over the weekend and loved them!
I know you're thinking "tofu in deviled eggs?" but you really can't taste it. The tofu is there as a filler since you only use half the yolks, so this is a healthy recipe. The hot sauce, horseradish and Dijon mustard provide a noticeable kick. Yum!
