Get the kids, and try out this super cute Deviled Egg Chick recipe!

 

This would be the perfect breakfast treat for your family over this Easter break! Remember to get your Coupland’s Toast Bread out of the freezer so you can have some toast on the side.

 

 

Ingredients
  • 12 large eggs hard boiled and peeled
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 1/2 tsp dijon mustard* or add to taste
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/8 tsp salt (or to taste)
  • 1 small carrot peeled and sliced into rings
  • 6 black olives

 

equipment
  • A straw (plastic, paper, or steel)
  • A sharp knife (parental/caregiver help)

 

Method
  1. Peel 12 hard-boiled eggs.
  2. Carefully with a sharp knife, slice off a very thin layer from the base of the egg – this will give it a flat surface to stand on a platter. Cut off a generous top third of the egg. Squeeze around the egg base gently to loosen the yolk and it should pop right out. Keep the lids paired with their bases.
  3. In a medium mixing bowl, combine 12 cooked yolks and mash well with a fork. Add 1/3 cup mayonnaise, 1 1/2 tsp dijon (or add to taste), 1/4 tsp garlic powder and 1/8 tsp salt, or season to taste. Mash everything together until smooth.
  4. Transfer mixture into a snap lock bag or pastry bag, and pipe generously into egg bases. Place top 1/3 back over the base and press down slightly to stick together.
  5. For the eyes, poke through an olive with a straw several times, then gently squeeze down the straw and the little circles of olives will pop right out. For the beaks, thinly slice a few rings of carrot and cut each ring into sixths to make tiny little triangles. Insert 2 olive spots for eyes and 2 carrot wedges the beak.
  6. Set chicks on a platter and garnish with fresh parsley or dill to give them that “free range” feel.

 

*No dijon? No problem! Substitute with 1 1/2 tsp white wine vinegar
