What to do With all of Those Hard Boiled Eggs?

 

Oh, Easter Sunday was a beautiful day on the Crystal Coast of North Carolina.  It was warm and sunny, and Easter Service at St. Francis by the Sea was FABULOUS!  Thank you Father Everett!  Now...what to do with all of those Hard Boiled Eggs?  I love eggs.  Scrambled Eggs, Fried Eggs, and yes I love Hard Boiled eggs too.  So, here are just a few suggestions of ways to use those Hard Boiled eggs over the next few days....You certainly don't want to waste them!

 

  • My first and favorite way is to make Deviled Eggs.  My mom, of course, makes the best deviled eggs ever!
  • Egg Salad.....YUM, Need I say more?
  • Chop up a couple and add to a creamy pasta salad (It is especially good if you add a little bacon too).
  • Top a big green salad with some chopped hard boiled eggs.  Throw in some feta cheese, roasted red peppers and chick peas....You've got a great tasting, healthy meal.
  • You can even make pickled eggs...I think they are GROSS, but To each his own! 
  • Add some egg to your favorite Potato Salad...shredded cheddar cheese, bacon...Eggsellent! 
  • Make a few more deviled eggs 
  • Slice the eggs, top with cheese, ham (from the leftover Easter dinner), and anything else that sounds good, slap it on a tortilla shell, and you have a fabulous breakfast burrito...If you are like me, Breakfast is good anytime of the day!

I am sure there are many other wonderful ways to enjoy those left over Easter eggs...These are just a few of my favorites.  Remember, hard boiled eggs will last about one week in the fridge, so you can enjoy them ALL Week!

 

Hope you had a wonderful Holiday Weekend!

I'm with you on the pickled eggs - yuk! However, I like the other ideas very much. Don't forget 'eggs benedict'.

Well here's one I didn't see in your post...............some kids in my building were throwing them off their balcony at cars.  Add that one to your list!

Egg salad and green salad are two of my favorites. And don't forget to toss a few to your pups, they love them too!

Amy -  I was so disappointed . . .   I thought we'd have loads of devilled eggs left over.  Do you know what I found?   ONE!!!   One measly little half of an egg!!!    Boys, sheesh!    All your ideas are making me hungry.

And to think I just boiled eggs this morning because we didn't have any hard-boiled eggs! Egg salad for me!

Amy, we didn't make any this year because of all the ones we've thrown out in past years....not big hard boiled egg fans in my house.

Home is where the hearth is.

I love eggs, too.  Easter and otherwise.

Hi Amy,

How can you like all these varieties of hard boiled eggs and not like a pickled egg?  I know they are purple and all, but they taste better than they look.  If you like beets, you will like pickled eggs even more.  Seriously, try one. :)

On a tossed green salad is probably my favorite.  I love deviled eggs but they are not as healthy as straight up on a salad, so I resist.

Maggie - Let me know if you have any other ideas for eggs....We still have tons!

Amy, after puppy class last night, I went home and made a huge green salad topped off with chopped eggs.  I only have about six left.  I think Ted's having egg salad for lunch today.  Yummy.

How can anybody not like eggs?
