Making deviled eggs. All cooked and peeled. I put them in a bowl, and start mashing them all up..Whites and all!!

Jeesh, what was I thinking?

I bought extra eggs yesterday, and am so glad I did.

My mind is so somewhere else today.

A big time do-over.

Anybody else have an ooops today?

    Trin, here's something you can do with all the eggs you mashed up already:

    Devilled Egg Dip

    Â 5 large eggs
    Â 1/2 cup mayonnaise
    Â 1 tablespoons mustard
    Â 1 tablespoon white vinegar
    Â 1 tablespoon hot sauce
    Â 4 slices bacon
    Â 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
    Â salt and pepper, to taste
    Â crackers or chips, for dipping

    1. Put eggs in a sauce pan and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium heat. When the water starts to boil, turn off the heat and cover for 20 minutes. Allow eggs to cool enough to peel.

    2. While the eggs are cooking, fry four slices of bacon until crisp. Drain and crumble bacon into small pieces.

    3. In a large bowl, mix together mayo, mustard, hot sauce, vinegar, cheese, and crumbled bacon.

    4. In a small bowl, use a fork to mash the eggs into small chunks. You could also use a food processor or a potato masher. Add the eggs to the mayo and mustard mixture and stir together. Chill, if desired.

    5. Serve with crackers or potato chips for dipping.

    Egg Salad for sandwiches when you get tired of turkey, or ham.

    No oops yet today. But I've done some good ones.

    I've done some doozies! Sunday I baked chocolate chip cookies for my neighbor who plowed out our driveway after we ghot a foot of snow. I burned the first two trays-made good bird food. The next two trays were fine, but I let them bake only 10 minutes, nit the recommended 13-17.

    No oops for me yet, but there's still time!!! That egg dip sounds really good. I love egg salad sandwiches, too.

    Ya, well...you should see what a gallon of soup does after the ziplock bag it was in came apart, while in the fridge! Of course, it was on the top shelf. What a mess!! And all my son could do was laugh at me! (lol! now....) sigh.....

    Merry Christmas!

    I boiled my dozen eggs last nite for scotch eggs. Gonna hit the kitchen now to peel them and will have them ready for cooking in the moring before heading to friends.

    Learned this from a fireman: In boiler pan, after eggs have cooled in refrigerator, and are well drained, put the lid on and shake them like you would if you are popping popcorn . Open and they should have peeled themselves or partly peeled.

    Twill see in couple minutes.

    Oh, Monarae, that sounds like a nightmare mess. Maybe if sonny boy finds it so funny, he should clean it up.

    LOL, Trin! Sounds like somebody has too many things on her mind.

    I did something similar while I was baking cookies one day. I just dumped all the ingredients in at once instead of creaming the butter and sugars. As soon as I put the flour in I knew what I'd done, but made them anyway. Didn't seem to hurt the finished product, though.

    Well.. he did help, between the giggles. He is going to school to be a Chef, and he just sat back, being 18, and proceeded to tell me what I did wrong. He is such a clown... What else could we do but laugh after awhile. (after I swore like a sailor) The fridge is sparkling now!

    That dip recipe sounds good!

  • 16 years ago

    I am so making that dip. It sounds fantastic.

    No oops for me this holiday. I think it may be a first.
