Easter Yellow Chicken Bowls

Easter Yellow Chicken Bowls
original recipe by Monkey Artz ©

1 Dozen Eggs (I prefer Eggland Brand, but you do not have to).
Real Mayonnaise.  (not gross, icky miracle whip-crap)
French's yellow mustard.
1 small onion (optional, because onions can make you cry and this is a happy dish).
Salt and ol' reliable pepper.

Put the eggies in a pot on top the stove.  Cover with water.  No eggs should be naked....meaning, water is covering all the eggs.   Throw some salt in the water   (makes the eggs easier to peel for later).

Put heat on super high...until boiling...
After water boils....let it boil another 15 - 20 minutes WITH eggs in the water...in case you were confused.
If you are really lost here...your goal will be to have 12 hard-boiled eggs when you are finished with this part!!

Once eggs have boiled sufficiently...take the pot with the eggs and put in sink.  Run cold water over the boiled eggs for a while.

Peel Eggs.  These suckers will be frickin' hot to touch, if you peel them right after they are in the sink. 
Run eggs under cold water while you are peeling them...the eggs will be easier to peel running under cold water and not so DAMNED frickin' hot to touch!  It's OK to swear here, really.  I know, 'cause I grew up catholic.  Catholic School and everything!  (a good catholic would drink to this remark).

Put your peeled eggs aside....like on a cutting board, counter top, paper towel....etc...preferably not on the floor.  If one drops to the floor - tell NO one and at least wash it off under the cold water.

*tip*  As you peel the eggs one by one try to not to eat them ALL at once.  But if you MUST eat some...eat in even numbers on a Tuesday and stand on one foot. 

Now, are you ready for some fun?  I knew you were.
Cut the boiled eggs.....are you ready....cut them in half!! Told you!  FUN! Cut them in half the "long-way" and try not to tear the white part. TRY! at least TRY!

Now this only gets funner and funner!  Now take a teaspoon...and scoop all the fun yellow yolk stuff out and then place the yolks inside a large Ziploc baggie.  The whites will all be empty now and all lonely, sad and stuff.  But we will get back to those bad boy whites in a minute.

Add to the Ziploc bag that already have the fun yolks inside...salt and lovely pepper.  Add about a tablespoon or more of real mayonnaise...and then add yellow mustard, about 3 tablespoons.  You want the mix to be MORE a yellow color than a white color.  Mustard will add a lot more zest to the recipe.  Who the hell wants bland Easter Yellow Chicken Bowls?  (raise your hand, if you don't) <--- you have to raise your hand...HAVE to...

Oh yeah...the onion, if you want to add this...this would be a good time to do that....peel and chop onion into little FINE, tiny chunks...chop, chop like you've never chopped before and then add 'em to the Ziploc bag with the "others."

Now with the Ziploc bag zipped...start squishing all the yolks and ingredients together.  Squish, twist and roll to mix the stuff together well.  Now...very important.... TASTE!  Yes, open the bag, and taste.  Add more mustard, mayo, onions, pepper, whatever you think it needs.

After you have squished and mushed all the ingredients together to your liking...Squish all the stuff down to the corner of the baggie.  So, it kind of forms a cone.  Not an ice-cream cone, but a cone like in geometry...if you remember any geometry.

Arrange the bad boy empty whites on a plate, serving tray...whatever you are using....

Take your cone concoction and squeeze all the good stuff to the corner of that cone...then take some scissors and cut a small hole in the corner.  You should have something now kinda-like a cake frosting thingy.

Squeeze out a desired amount of yellow stuff into the white bowl.  Repeat onto each egg.  You should have plenty of yellow stuffing to go around for each white bowl.  And whatever is left you can suck out of the corner of the Ziploc bag.  More fun!

Perfect!  Now take a pic and put it on your FB profile page.  Or post your pics to this blog...I would love to see your finished Easter project !

Should make 24 Easter Yellow Chicken Bowls...depending how many were eaten or destroyed before project was completed. 

*Oh yeah, and if you're not eating them right away...cover and refrigerate. 
No one likes that hot egg disease - Eggietrickanosisgastric.

For Heaven's Sake, People!  Don't be a'scared...these are only Deviled Eggs!
