Deviled Eggs
- 6 eggs
- 1/2 chopped celery
- 1 TBL chopped onion
- 1 TBL relish
- 1/4 cup Mayo
- 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1/8 tsp of hot pepper sauce
- Black pepper to taste
- Paprika: Sweet
1) Put eggs in a saucepan, cover with water.
Bring to a rapid boil, cover, and set aside for ten
minutes.
2) Run cool water over eggs and peel.
3) Slice in half, place yolks in a bowl with celery,
onion, relish, mayo, cayenne, hot pepper sauce,
and black pepper. Mix together until yolks are
smooth.
4) Add mixture to a small sandwich bag, cut out a
corner of the bag, and gently squeeze the bag to
fill each egg white half. Sprinkle with paprika and
refrigerate for 2 hours.
Hummus
- 2 TBL Tahini
- 1 Can chick peas/ Garbanzo beans (Drained)
- 4 TBL Lemon Juice
- 1 Clove fresh garlic or 1 tsp minced from jar
- 1/8 tsp cayenne
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- Black pepper to taste
- Salt (optional) up to 1 tsp
- Olive oil (optional)
1) Place all ingredients into the blender; except ones
flagged as optional. Blend until smooth.
2) Taste for salt and add as needed, mix slightly and
serve. Olive oil can be drizzled over the hummus; in my
opinion, it is not needed.
Notes: blend in roasted peppers, jalapenoes, or sun-
dried tomatoes for an additional twist.
Guacamole (hot)
- 3 Avocados peeled and pitted
- 2 TBS of cilantro, copped
- 3 Roma tomatoes diced
- 2 Garlic cloves or 1 tsp minced from jar
- 1/4 cup Red Onion
- 1 Jalapenoes chopped
- 1 Habenero chopped
- 1 Lime juiced or 1-2 TBL of Lime bottled
juice
- 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1/2 tsp of hot pepper sauce
- 1/4 tsp of salt (optional)
1) Place prepped avocados and cilantro in a large
bowl, add lime juice, cayenne, hot pepper sauce,
and salt (optional). Mash together with potato
masher to desired smoothness; I prefer slightly
chunky.
2) Fold in Tomatoes, garlic, onion, and peppers
and chill for 2-4 hours.
Notes: A dash of cumin adds a twist and lemon
juice can be substituted for the lime
