Easter Chick Deviled Eggs 2 Food

CUTE DEVILED EGGS CHICKS FOR EASTER

Steps:

• De-shell the eggs and cut the top 1/4 off each egg making sure to save the top (it's the head topper!). Then, cut a very small sliver of egg off from the bottom so that it's able to stand upright
• Note: I've found that it's much easier if you use the thick part of the egg for the topper and the thinner part for standing. Basically, this is the opposite of how they would sit in an egg carton. However, this makes it easier to scoop out the yolk without breaking the egg.
• Very carefully, use a small spoon (I use a baby spoon and paring knife) to scoop out the yolk from the egg being extra careful not to break the egg. Once all yolks have been scooped into a bowl add in the dry mustard, sundried tomatoes, yogurt, mayonnaise and salt and pepper. Mix well.
• Place the mixture in the fridge to chill.
• Prepare the carrots. Peel the carrots as usual.. Then, use the julienne peeler to strip the carrot into thin stems and cut them so they're roughly 3/4 inch long. You need 42 small pieces (36 for the feet and 6 for the noses).
• In each egg, poke in six carrots towards the bottom to mimic "feet" on chickens. Do this for all the eggs, gently placing them on your serving tray when finished. Fill a piping bag with the egg mixture and carefully pipe the mixture back into each of the eggs making sure it comes up about half an inch over the top. Careful not to fill the eggs too much so they explode.
• Take the tops of the eggs and carefully place them on top of the yolk mixture at an angle leaving room for a "face". Next, take the tweezers and place the peppercorns in for eyes and the triangle carrots in for the nose.
• That's it! Chill in the fridge until ready to serve.

EASTER CHICK DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Slice through the top 1/3 of each egg, ensuring some of the yolk is included in the slice. Carefully remove the egg yolk from the bottom portion of the egg using a spoon and transfer to a bowl.
• Mix egg yolks, mayonnaise, mustard, pickle, horseradish, pickle juice, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Fill a piping bag or a plastic bag with a corner snipped with the egg yolk mixture. Pipe egg yolk mixture into the hollowed egg whites creating the 'chick', ensuring there is enough filling to add 'eyes' and a 'beak.'
• Slice small wedges out of the carrot rounds creating 12 'beaks'. Add a 'beak' to each 'chick'.
• Slice olive pieces into small squares to be used as 'eyes.' Add 2 'eyes' to each 'chick.' Place the egg tops onto each 'chick' to look like a chick peaking out of the egg.
