These make a fantastic 4th-of-July potluck item. Unless, of course, like me, you somehow manage to eat most of them before you get there.
Ingredients:
– 6 hardboiled eggs (or however many you want to make)
– 1 green onion, sliced thinly
– 1 sprig of cilantro, finely chopped
– 1/2 a juicy lime, juiced
– 2 green, jalepeno-stuffed olives, finely chopped
– about 2 tablespoons of mayonaise
– a dash of salt, chipotle chili powder, and smoked paprika
Steps:
1. Cut the eggs in half lengthwise and scoop out the yolks
2. Smash the yolks together with all of the rest of the ingredients until it forms a smooth paste
3. Scoop the paste back into the hollows in the halved whites
4. Arrange on a plate and add an extra dash of paprika on top for a pretty finish
These also make a great quick snack if you keep them in the fridge (way better than grabbing a handful of chips)!
Enjoy, and happy 4th!
