Simply chop a couple roughly in a bowl and add a small spoonful of mayonnaise and a sprinkling of salt and pepper.

Make Meatloaf

Make Meatloaf Use lean ground beef and you have an entrée that’s loaded with protein and iron, but that doesn’t overload you with saturated fat and calories. Mix raw ground beef with breadcrumbs or cornmeal and add an egg and a bit of steak sauce for flavor. I like to use Worcestershire, but A-1, plain tomato ketchup or Heinz 57 also works well. Add a cup or so of diced hard-boiled eggs and form the mixture into a loaf. Bake at 375 degrees for 45 to 60 minutes, or until the beef is no longer pink in the middle. Serve with mashed potatoes and steamed green beans for a healthy and totally yummy meal.

Garnish a Bowl of Soup

Garnish a Bowl of Soup Hard-boiled eggs have a pretty mild flavor, so it makes them a great garnish for soups of all kinds. Simply chop the eggs and sprinkle them on a bowl of vegetable, creamy potato, minestrone or fish soup. They also work well on pasta soup or clam chowder. The eggs won’t dramatically change the taste of your favorite soup, but they will add a load of nutrition to your meal.

Make a Sauce

Make a Sauce An egg sauce is both healthy and flavorful and pairs deliciously with chicken or fish. Place chopped hard-boiled eggs, mayo, diced pickles, capers, Worcestershire, minced garlic, salt and fresh black pepper in the blender and puree until smooth and creamy. Drizzle the sauce over grilled or steamed meats and get ready for a meal you’ll want to eat again and again.
