Ingredients

  • 8 large hard-boiled eggs (see Tip)
  • 3 tablespoons nonfat sour cream or nonfat plain yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon reduced-fat mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon grainy mustard
  • 4 scallions, trimmed and chopped
  • Salt & freshly ground pepper to taste
  • 3/4 cup washed and stemmed watercress
  • 8 slices pumpernickel bread

Cooking Instructions

1. Scoop out egg yolks. Place 2 yolks in a small bowl and reserve the rest for another use. Chop egg whites and reserve. Mash the yolks with a fork and stir in sour cream (or yogurt), mayonnaise and mustard. Add chopped egg whites and scallions and season with salt and pepper.

2. Arrange watercress on 4 bread slices. Top with the egg salad and cover with the remaining bread slices.

Tip: To hard-boil eggs: Place eggs in a single layer in a saucepan; cover with water. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low and cook at the barest simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat, pour out hot water and run a constant stream of cold water over the eggs until completely cooled.
