These are addictive, that's for sure, but go wild - they are solid, dense protein and a perfect snack when the urge hits. Add a bag of protein chips and you've got a quick, nutritious lunch or dinner. 

(A secret to having lots of filling in your deviled eggs is to very finely grate - with the finest holes on a cheese grater - one whole boiled egg. No one will ever know there are whites mixed into the yolks!)


7 hard boiled eggs
1/4 cup creamy Caesar dressing
1 tablespoon half & half
2 tablespoons shredded Parmesan cheese
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon finely minced fresh basil leaves
Additional Parmesan for garnish

Peel eggs and cut 6 of them in half, lengthwise; carefully remove the yolks to a small mixing bowl and mash. Finely grate the seventh egg into the yolks. Stir in the Caesar dressing, half & half and Parmesan cheese until smooth. Add salt and black pepper to taste. 

Divide the yolk mixture among the egg white halves and arrange on a plate. Garnish with a sprinkling of minced basil and Parmesan cheese. Cover and chill. Makes 6 servings, two pieces each.
