I love eggs, and it's nice to have a way to have eggs differently than the traditional breakfast preparation: fried, scrambled, etc. Deviled eggs are one of those foods that are simple to make yet satisfy my appetite for a while (thanks, protein!).
Ingredients:
- A few eggs
- Mayonnaise or Miracle Whip
- Sugar
- Paprika
- Hard boil the eggs. It's not necessary for the water to boil, but it needs to be hot. Cooking the eggs may take 10 - 15 minutes after the water is brought up to full heat.
- Cool the eggs by draining the hot water and adding cold water. Top the water with ice. Boiled eggs are best served cold, and I think this helps the insides set up.
- Slice the eggs in half length-wise.
- Remove the yolks to a bowl.
- Mix the above ingredients with the egg yolks. Using a fork to break and mix the yolks is an effective approach.
- Start with a small amount of Mayo/Miracle Whip and add more if you want it more creamy.
- A pinch of sugar is usually enough.
- Refill the egg white halves with your mixture.
- Shake a small amount of Paprika on each piece.
I'll have to try those. Micah said that he wished you were here to make some. Thanks for the idea!
