Don't forget your Deviled Eggs

To be quicker, I bought the hard boiled eggs... sliced in half, smashed the center in a bowl with a fork...
Added:
14
large, hard-boiled EGGS
1/2 cup
mayonnaise- olive oil mayonnaise was used for mine
1-1/2 tsp.
Dried Mustard
1 tsp.
fresh lemon juice
1/4 tsp.
ground pepper
Apple cider vinegar to taste

Can add Sour Cream, Large Bacon chips and chives

AND  Don't Forget the spinach Balls

I change this recipe to suit the ingredients I have and my mood... In general... 2 10 oz froz chopped spinach packages cooked and drained thrown in bowl... mix with 2 cups of could be Pep.Farm, but whatever Herbal stuffing in box or bag crushed form-rather than squares are best for mixing... 4 eggs beaten well, I usually add some seasoned bread crumbs just for finer mix and all kinds of shredded cheese,-thrown in to be sure there is plenty for each spinach ball, 2 cloves of garlic chopped finely and at least half of a flavorful onion if large or 1 small one chopped into tiny squares.. Cheese can either be a mixed bag or this time I put in shredded parm, and 2 types of shredded cheddar plus shredded mozzarella....  Just lots of flavors...

Mix and put in frig or freezer to make easy to roll into balls and then roll the balls whatever size you like and cook in oven 10 minutes or until slight brown and crunchy on the outside.   These are usually a winner.

My local HT did the hard stuff... Turkey and usual mashed potatoes and green bean casserole... Picked up in the morning already cooked... YEH! HT
and it was cooked just right!!!
