Deviled Eggs
Hubby LOVES Deviled Eggs. Honestly, loves them. Whenever we make them for get togethers, I have to hide the fact that they’re being made until right before people arrive so he doesn’t eat them all. Sometimes, when he’s stressed, I’ll whip up 2 or 3 eggs worth for him and he starts smiling instantly.
Deviled Eggs are such a classic appetizer and I know a lot of people have their own family recipes for making them. I learned from my mom and I really just throw things together and taste as I go. But when I set out to make our Family Cookbook, I forced myself to use measuring spoons and write it up as a recipe. I even posted these, over 4 years ago, but didn’t have measurements in that recipe.
One last note about Deviled Eggs. If you are like me and don’t have one of those special egg plates to serve your eggs, you can simply line a serving tray with leafy greens. Not only will it prevent your eggs from sliding all over the place, it also adds a great splash of color.

Deviled Eggs
This classic appetizer is always a hit!
Ingredients:
2 Hard boiled eggs

Pinch of sugar
1 Tbsp mayonnaise
Paprika, for garnish
Directions:
Peel eggs and cut in 1/2 lengthwise.
Remove yolks and place in a small bowl.
Smash all the yolks up.
Add mustard, mayonnaise, and sugar until you like the taste.
Using a melon-baller (or a spoon) scoop yolk mixture into the whites of the eggs.
This recipe scales up and down very well.

Very cool (pun intended)! I’ll have to bookmark this recipe in case I have some friends who can’t consume dairy.

Coconut milk is definitely my friend when it comes to dairy free ice cream!
ooh, i have never made a plain vanilla, but i do love a good quality vanilla bean 🙂 especially with coconut milk!!
I love vanilla ice cream that’s so vanilla-y that it has the little flecks in it 🙂 Heavenly!
How convienent that I just paid $6 for a tiny container of dairy free ice cream and wanted to find a cheaper homemade version. Thanks for sharing this gem.

Dairy free ice cream is definitely expensive and making it at home yields such great results! I don’t think I’ll ever go back to store bought ice cream again.
