Yield 12 Halves, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 hard-boiled eggs
1 cup watercress, chopped
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons scallions, chopped
2 tablespoons tarragon, chopped
salt & pepper
4 -6 slices baked ham, thin sliced

Steps:

Once eggs are hard-boiled, cooled and pealed, cut in half & place yolk only in food processor. Add mayonnaise (you can use Miracle Whip if you prefer a zangier taste), watercress, scallions, & tarragon. Process until smooth and creamy. If you prefer a bit of a chunky texture, pulse until desired texture. Salt and pepper to taste.
Roll and place ham in each egg. I suggest placing a tad of yolk mixture in egg first (just a tad) to hold down the ham. Gently press in ham and fill with desired amount of yolk mixture.
Can be served immediately or chill for 1-2 hours before serving.
