What is deviled egg filling?
Deviled eggs are hard-boiled eggs that have been peeled, cut in half, then stuffed with a paste made from the yolk and other ingredients. Basic deviled egg filling is made with egg yolks, mayonnaise, relish, mustard, salt, and pepper. The eggs are often seasoned with spices like paprika or cayenne pepper.
What can you substitute for boiled eggs?
For vegans looking for an alternative to a boiled egg, substitute about 2 ounces of firm or extra firm tofu. The texture of tofu is relatively close to an egg while the protein and calorie content is similar. Tofu has no cholesterol and a range of nutrients similar to those found in eggs. For example, substitute chopped firm tofu for boiled eggs in egg salad recipes. For individuals allergic or sensitive to eggs, shrimp is a reasonable substitute. About 8 large shrimp weighing 6 grams each would increase protein from 6 grams to 11 grams, while calories would be reduced, and cholesterol would be cut in half.
