Deviled eggs are another tasty and simple way to serve eggs. Eggs are a nutrtional powerhouse that play an important role in maintaining a healthy diet. Eggs have been called a high source of high quality protein and amino acids that are indispensable for a healthy body. Eggs also defend and improve eyesight by preventing diseases like cataracts. I found you can be creative or very simple with your deviled eggs. This is a pretty basic recipe, but I have seen recipes where tuna, salmon, tomato, hot sauce, relish is mixed into the yolk. I think one can be as creative or as plain as desired. The true beauty of eggs are its versatilty, nutrients and of course the cost being so low(anywhere from .07, to .20 an egg) is normal, and I rarely see them for over .15 an egg, thats whole heck of a lot less then a piece of steak or fish!
heres what you need:
8 eggs hard boiled $1.40
1/4 cup mayonaiase .30
1 Tbsp prepared mustard .20
take the hard boiled eggs and remove from shell, carful not to break the eggs
slice once from top to bottom lenghtwise with a sharp knife creating two equal portions with an equal yellow in the middle. Next, separate the whites from the middle, saving each part. Place whites on a platter and place yolks in a resealable bag or a bowl. Add mayo and mustard to yolks and mix together with a fork first and then a spoon, until a smooth and creamy consistency. If usuing a a big, cut the tip of the bag forming a "cake decorating" type bag, and sqeezing from the bottom, fill each white of the egg with the yolk mixture. If yellows of egg are in a bowl, simple fill whites with a spoon. Top with paprika or dried parsley if desired. This serves 4 as a meal(two eggs-four halves to each person) or 8 as an appetizer.
