Stephanie Zubiri-Crespi shares her recipe for Easy Caviar Pie

caviar

🥗Healthier: fish roe

💰Cheaper: smoked salmon

Fish roe offers a similar briny flavor at a lower cost.

sour cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: plain yogurt

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess.

cream cheese

🥗Healthier: neufchâtel cheese

💰Cheaper: ricotta cheese

Neufchâtel is lower in fat, while ricotta is more affordable.

mayonnaise

🥗Healthier: avocado

💰Cheaper: homemade mayo

Avocado provides healthy fats and a creamy texture.

Pulse red onion in a food processor until textured, not pureed.

Chop boiled egg and add to the food processor with the dill and softened cream cheese; mix until combined.

If in a hurry, dump all ingredients into the food processor and blend.

Prepare a ring mold on a plate for layering the caviar pie.

Layer the caviar over the cream cheese mixture in the ring mold.

Gently lift the ring mold to reveal the pie shape.

If no ring mold is available, place the mixture into a bowl or ramekin instead.

Garnish as desired and serve with velvet toast and white crackers.
