Deviled Egg Chicks


Okay, so I'll admit--this is one of the few recipes on this blog that I haven't tried... But Easter is this Sunday, and I couldn't help but re-post these from Food and Whine.  I hope the Easter Bunny likes eggs, cause I'm making these on Sunday!

Ingredients:
  • 12 eggs
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp ground mustard
  • 1 tsp vinegar
  • salt and pepper
  • baby carrots
  • raisins
Directions:
  1. Hard-boil your eggs. (Put eggs in a pot of cold water, heat until boiling, then boil for 8 minutes.  Then run the hot water under cold water for a few minutes until the eggs have cooled.)
  2. Remove shells. Cut eggs in half and scoop cooked yolks into a bowl.
  3. Add mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, and a dash of salt and pepper. Mix until smooth.
  4. Place yolk mixture into the cooked egg whites (I like to spoon the mixture in a ziploc bag and cut a hole in the corner, then squeeze it onto the egg whites-- it just looks prettier that way).
  5. To decorate as chicks, use slices of baby carrots as feet. Cut triangular pieces of carrots for beaks. Cut tiny pieces of raisins for eyes.
  6. Take a bite out of your tiny deviled chick-eggs and listen to them scream as you eat their delicious faces off.  (Just kidding!)
