You will love these!... the egg mixture is also fantastic on buttered thick sliced whole wheat or white bread. For even more flavor, mix the egg with all other ingredients, and chill for about 3 hours before preparing the pitas. Prep time does not include boiling the eggs. Ingredients:
2/3 cup mayonnaise (can use more) |
3 tablespoons sweet relish |
1 teaspoon prepared mustard |
1/4 teaspoon celery salt |
1/4 teaspoon paprika |
7 hard-boiled eggs, coarsely chopped |
salt and pepper |
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese |
1/4 cup onion, finely chopped (can use green onion) |
1/4 cup finely grated carrot (or to taste squeeze out moisture with hands) |
3 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled |
3 pita breads, halved |
sliced tomato |
lettuce leaf |
Directions:
1. In a bowl combine the first 5 ingredients.
2. Add in the eggs, cheese, onion, carrots and bacon; mix well to combine.
3. Season with salt and pepper, and adjust all ingredients to suit taste.
4. Open the pita half, and place a lettuce leaf and sliced tomato in the bottom of the pita.
5. Spoon about 1/2 cup mixture into the pita, sitting on the lettuce leaf and tomato.
6. Delicious!
