Easter Deviled Eggs

March 29, 2012 By 13 Comments

Looking for a fun way to bring color to your Easter meal? How about dying your deviled eggs? I brought them to a women’s tea on my block last week and they got a lot of comments! I thought they turned out really pretty. So simple to make, too!

I’m not even going to attempt to give you my recipe, because honestly, I don’t have one. I should have counted what I was doing while I was making my eggs, but it’s all to taste for me. All I use in my eggs is non-fat mayonnaise and mustard. I usually throw a big glob of mayo and squirt some mustard in with the smashed up yolks and blend in my mixer until smooth. I then taste and add more of whatever is needed. Not very helpful, huh? Sorry! To make the dyed eggs, though, you want to cut your eggs in half, lengthwise and remove yolks.

Place about a half cup of water in a glass and then drop about 5 drops of food dye into the water. Drop your egg halves into the water and let sit for about 30 seconds, or as long as you’d like for darker colors. If you’d like a swirly look, drop more food coloring in the water while the egg is in there.

Take your eggs out of the dyed water and let dry on a paper towel.

Once dry, fill your now pretty colored egg shells with your filling. I like to pipe in my filling with cake decorating piping bags and frosting tips. Taadaa! Pretty eggs for your Easter table:

I wanted to tell you which site I found this idea on, but I can’t seem to find it anymore. It was on Pinterest and this idea is all over the place there now anyway.

Ecce Panis Mini Boule Bread with Honey Butter Spread #Recipe #EasterMeals #CBias

March 25, 2012 By 7 Comments

I was asked to create a spread to go along with the Ecce Panis Bake at Home breads from Walmart. I packed up my little man and headed to Walmart to pick up the breads. I already had the stuff for the butter at home. I decided to use the same honey butter spread that I made for my Outback at Home series. It’s SO delicious! Little Man wasn’t as cheerful as usual because I think he’s getting Mommy’s sickness. We had a hard time choosing between the four breads they had there. We decided to go with the Neo-Tuscan Mini Boule and the individual dinner rolls for later this week.

The package tells you to wait 5 minutes to cool before cutting, but I cut right in. I LOVE warm, fresh bread! I love the way the butter melts in and incorporates itself in the whole flavor.

The butter is so simple to make that you can get it done in the time that your bread is in the oven! This bread and butter pairing would be a great addition to your Easter dinner or brunch.

The combination of the Ecce Panis Mini Boule bread and the honey butter spread is so YUM! I could eat the whole loaf myself. Although I didn’t. It would also be great paired with steak and potatoes, which is what I planned to make for dinner but my husband is still out helping his sister move at 7:30pm. Oh well. I’ll probably just broil the steaks and eat them on salads this week for myself.

“Tie-Dyed” Easter Eggs

April 21, 2011 By 11 Comments

Silk Tie Easter Eggs, Tie Dyed Eggs

If you look closely, you can see parrots on this egg.

I was recently Stumbling and came across a post on how to Dye Easter Eggs with Silk Ties. I saw that and had to try it myself!

Materials:

  • Silk Ties
  • String (I used dental floss, which if you’re a couponer, you can always find free or cheap)
  • Scissors
  • Eggs
  • Vinegar
  • Water

Directions:

  1. Cut the threading out of your ties 
  2. Take the white fabric out of the inside of the tie and put aside.
  3. Cut pieces of tie and wrap around the egg.
  4. Wrap your string or floss around the egg until it’s nice and tight. (If gaps are left, you will have white spots on your eggs) 
  5. Wrap the white material from inside the tie around the outside and wrap with floss again.
  6. Boil your eggs for 20-25 minutes in 1/4 c vinegar and the rest water. 
  7. After boiled, let eggs cool at least 10 mins in cold water.
  8. Have fun unwrapping and seeing what fun eggs you’ve made

My friend Rhea also gave it a try.  She came up with some really cool designs. I think it’s funny that she and I both Stumbled the same post! I think a few of my other bloggy friends are making these eggs as well. If I find their posts I’ll link them up so you can see their pretty designs. I can’t wait to scout out more ties this year and have awesome designs next year!
