DEVILED EGGS

DEVILED EGGS

Because of dying eggs for Easter, I had some hard boiled eggs I needed to do something with. So, you all get to be wittiness to my first ever attempt at deviled eggs! woot woot!

What we need: hard boiled eggs, mayo, mustard, paprika

Directions: remove the shell from the eggs and cut lengthwise, remove the yoke and place in bowl. Set the Egg whites aside for now. Mix the yoke, mayo, mustard. ( I did this part by taste, so I don't know how much I used, but use more mayo then mustard). Once all are creamed together, put in the holes of the eggs whites and top with paprika.


I think they turned out pretty okay. They weren't the best I've ever eaten. But, they are the best that I've ever made! 3 Star with hope for improvement next time. ;)

GOULASH

GOULASH

The thing about goulash is, everyone makes it different. Here is how my family makes it...

what we need: 1 lb ground beef, 24 oz tomato sauce, 1 can (14.5 oz) Hunt's diced tomatoes w/basil, garlic, and oregano, 1 can corn (drained), aprox. 8 oz elbow macaroni, 1/4 cup milk, 2 Tbs butter, salt and pepper.

directions: cook the macaroni as directed, and brown the beef. Then mix all together and heat through. Salt and pepper to taste.


The great thing about this is that there are so many different ways to make it. Use can use any type of pasta you want, and some people use potatoes instead of the pasta. If you like more sauce you can add more, I do a little less because of the mess my kids make when eating things with tomato sauce. 4 star!

ORANGE FRENCH TOAST

ORANGE FRENCH TOAST


what we need: 1 cup orange juice, 4 eggs, 10 slices Texas toast bread

directions: Beat orange juice and eggs together. dip each piece of bread into orange/egg mixture. place on griddle. cook each side for 2 minutes until golden Makes 5 servings.


Notes: I didn't get a picture of this, but I'm sure you all know what French Toast looks like. Right? I thought so. So, any who, I didn't really care for this dish to much. The French Toast was a little to soggy for my taste with the egg to orange juice ratio, but everyone else that I ate it with liked it. So feel free to give it a try and see what you think. I liked that the OJ wasn't overpowering, but still not for me.
