Delicio Recipe List

Deviled Eggs The best way to insure beautiful boiled eggs (without that ugly green film on the yolk) is to start off with the eggs in cold water. Bring the water to a boil, and boil for 3 minutes. Then, turn the heat off, cover the pot and let them sit for ten minutes. To dye the boiled eggs, use small juice glasses or coffee cups. I like the glasses because you/the kids can see the egg. Add water and a tablespoon of vinegar to the glasses. (about half way full) Then add a few drops of food coloring. Let the eggs sit for a minute.* Remove the eggs and let them drain and dry on paper towels. Don't try to wipe them dry. * Tip... The longer you let the egg sit in the dye, the darker it will get.  Easter Eggs ready to hide! :-) I like to make deviled eggs, potato salad , chicken salad , tuna salad and egg salad with my left over Easter Eggs! These have bacon added to them!

One of my earliest memories of my Mom's mom (Gran) was her taking a plate of deviled eggs to a sick friend. This had to be in about '66 or'67. Gran's deviled eggs were the best, and I am so glad that I had her write it down, as it is one recipe that was not in her wooden recipe box, which I now have. There are no exact measurements here, you just have to use your own judgement. I usually boil 18 eggs, peel and cool, cut in half Mash yolks, add a cup or so, give or take, of mayonaise. NOT miracle whip. Its easier to add more than to take it out if you get too much. Now Gran used regular yellow mustard. I have taken to using spicy brown mustard. Either way, a little less than a tablespoon of it. About a tsp. of salt, again, go easy, adding more if needed. Now add a "little bit" of apple cider VINEGAR. I usually just pour a little bit into the cap. Mix all up, put into egg halves. Sprinkle with paprika if you want. Enjoy!
