Hard-Boiled Eggs

Holly and Jordan visited last night for swimming. I offered some hard-boiled eggs for a snack before swimming. Jordan was in awe of the very thought of them...looked at them like he'd never seen one before. It turned out that those ones were a bit old (made early last week) and had a funny smell, so we had to throw them away...however, it did bring to mind the need (?) to give Holly the recipe so they can make them at home...

Maybe we'll have these for dinner on Friday when you (Holly and Jordan) come over for trick or treating...hard-boiled eggs, toast, and sausages. Yum.

Hard-Boiled Eggs

Eggs
Water
Pot with tight fitting lid

Place the (whole) eggs in the bottom of the pot. Fill the pot with cool water to cover the eggs (don't need much more than that). Put the pot on high on the stove. Once the eggs come to a boil let them boil for 3 minutes. Then put the lid on, shut off the stove and let them sit for 20-25 minutes.
When they are done, pour as much hot water out as you can without the eggs falling out and add cold water to the pan. Let them sit in the cold water for 3-5 minutes. Then take them out and peel and eat. They can stay in the fridge for about 7 days.
