Ingredients

6 hard-cooked eggs
1/3 cup shredded taco-seasoned cheese OR cheddar cheese
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
3 Tbsp. minced green onions

Directions

  • Cut eggs lengthwise in half. Remove yolks to small bowl. Reserve whites.
  • Mash yolks with fork. Add cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream and green onions; mix well.
  • Spoon 1 heaping tablespoon yolk mixture into each egg white half.
  • Refrigerate, covered, to blend flavors.
  • Garnish eggs with copped chives or minced green onions.

Notes

No-mess method: Combine egg yolks, cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream and green onions in 1-quart plastic food-storage bag. Press out air and seal bag. Press and roll bag with hand until mixture is well blended. Push filling toward bottom corner of bag. Snip off about 1/2-inch of corner. Squeeze yolk mixture from bag into egg whites.

Picnic or tailgate tip: Prepare filling in plastic bag, as above. Carry whites and yolk mixture separately in cooler. Fill eggs on the spot, pressing filling out of snipped corner of bag.
