There are times when I want a quick and simple snack. So I am faced with a couple of options - one of which is to have a hard-boiled egg. Boiling an egg may not be as quick as opening a bag of chips, but ultimately, I find it much more satisfying! Of course, if you have a few pre-boiled eggs lying around in the fridge, it will be super quick because there's no more cooking involved!
My favorite two ways of having hard-boiled eggs is to either slather it with some kind of sauce, or have it as a deviled egg. My favorite sauce is to dribble some soy sauce and sesame oil over the egg and just eat it like that, as shown in the photo. On occasion, I might use my favorite hot sauce as well or use just a tiny amount of soy sauce. You can pretty much use whatever condiment you want!
The same goes for making deviled eggs, though this takes a bit more work. You'll need to scoop out the yolk and put it in a cup. Then mash it with some flavorings. My favorite mix includes prepared horseradish sauce and a tiny dollop of mayonnaise. Then scoop out the mixture and put it back into the egg. I'll admit this isn't the most weight-loss friendly snack, but I find it to be worth the effort. Again, you can really use whatever condiments you want. If you're making a whole lot of deviled eggs, you can use a food processor to mix the filling. Scoop the mixed filling into a ziploc bag and snip one corner of it. Squeeze the filling through the snipped corner into the eggs. You're basically using a makeshift pastry bag. Yum!
