Deviled Eggs to You!

I know I am a few days late of an easter recipe experiment but today I finally made Deviled Eggs!

I first read about these in a children's book where the spunky heroine gave herself the nickname Deviled Egg when a school rival called her an egghead. I never really did give much thought to it back then until I learned to check out recipes from online cookbooks. It is a very simple recipe than can turn your boring hard boiled eggs into something fancy enough to serve at dinner parties. Most recipes called for cayenne pepper but since I don't have them I just sprinkled some chopped spring onions and crushed chili flakes for a bit of heat and flavor.

I had a couple of cups of leftover rice in the fridge along with a slice of steak and mixed veggie sidings from the steak dinner we had the previous night. I wanted to make it like a java rice but didn't have the turmeric powder needed to color the rice yellow so I used the curry powder I had instead and liked the mild spicyness flavor it gave the rice.

winner winner chicken dinner!

whenever I don't feel like slaving too much in the kitchen and want something fast and cheap, my go to option is to get a whole Roasted Chicken. Yep, we love our chicken, but you got to admit sometimes store bough roast can be a tad bland and dry. In cases like this I dress it up a bit and throw in some veggies and a sauce to give it more flavor and liven it up. Sweet Chili Chicken Stir Fry ingredients: - half a roasted chicken deboned and the meat cut into strips - 1 cup broccoli florets and stems - 1 medium carrot sliced - 1/2 cup broth or water - 1/2 cup of sweet chili sauce (or more according to your taste) how to: - just toss everything in a work cooking until veggies are crisp tender - best served with hot steamed rice no more bland and dry chicken! this one is saucy, sweet and spicy like chinese take out
