4 hard boiled eggs – see post for oven-baked method
1/3 cup hummus
1 tsp cayenne powder
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp paprika
sea salt & pepper to taste
Cut hard-cooked eggs in half, lengthwise.
Remove yolks and place them in a mixing bowl. Place the whites on a plate and set them aside.
Add remaining ingredients to the bowl and mash together with a fork, mixing well.
Pipe or spoon the yolk mixture into egg whites.
Keep the eggs covered and refrigerated for up to two days.
To cook the eggs in the oven: Heat the oven to 375. Place the eggs in a muffin tin and bake for 25 minutes. Transfer the eggs to a bowl of icy cold water for 10 minutes. Done!
If you want a tad more creamy texture, use only 1/2 cup of hummus and substitute in 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise.
Do you like it a little spicy? Substitute in a teaspoon of fresh horseradish!
