    Easter Egg Anyone?

    Easter will come and go and you might find yourself with lots of left over hard boiled eggs. What to do? My research has turned up several ideas, some old, some new and some that had me wondering!
     
    The obvious deviled eggs and egg salad sandwiches can take on a new twist by adding curry or chili sauce to your tried and true recipe. Eggs Divan are an old time favorite but what about an egg pizza? Can you image, that recipe sounded just like a regular pizza but added sliced hard boiled eggs instead of pepperoni. Sounded like a pretty desperate attempt at using up those eggs!

    I finally settled on this one—it's perfect for my family's desire for hot and spicy, and takes care of the ham and egg left overs...yeah.

    3 T. butter
    3 T. flour               
    1 t. dry mustard
    3/4 t. salt                                   
    1/8 t. pepper
    1 1/2 c. milk
    1 T. Worcestershire
    1 T. chili sauce
    Dash of Tabasco
    6 hard boiled eggs, peeled and sliced
    2 c. diced, cooked ham
    3/4 c. diced sharp cheddar cheese
    2 T. chopped parsley

    Heat oven to 400 degrees.  In a saucepan melt butter, stir in flour, salt, pepper, mustard and then the milk. Stir until thickened.  Stir in Worcestershire, chili sauce and Tabasco.  In a 1 1/2 quart casserole, arrange layers of eggs, ham, cheese and sauce. Sprinkle with paprika. Bake 25-20 minutes. Right before serving sprinkle with chopped parsley. Makes 4-5 servings.
