An EASY Start to an Incredible Day!

Perfect Hard-Boiled Eggs



Eggs are full of protein and is a great way to start your morning right. They are the perfect breakfast after a morning workout and are packed with the nutrition you need to make it through the day. It is actually quite easy to make hard boiled eggs and when you try your first one, you will find that this will become apart of your regular diet.





Follow these easy steps to making the perfect hard-boiled eggs.

     1    Place eggs in a saucepan large enough to
           hold them in a single layer. Add cold water
           to cover the eggs by 1 inch. Heat over high
           heat just to boil. Remove from burner. Cover pan.

     2   Let eggs stand in hot water about 12 minutes
          for large eggs (10 minutes for medium eggs;
          15 minutes for extra large).

     3   Drain immediately and serve warm. Or, cool
          completely under cold running water or in a
          bowl of ice water, then refrigerate.

                                                  TIPS                                                   

    >   Very fresh eggs can be difficult to peel, so buy
         and refrigerate them a week to 10 days in advance 
        of cooking. This brief "breather" allows the eggs time
        to take in air, which helps separate the membranes 
        from the shell.
   
   >   To peel a hard-boiled egg: Gently tap egg on counter-top
        until shell is finely crackled all over. Roll egg between hands
        to loosen shell. Start peeling at large end, holding egg under
       cold running water to help ease the shell off.
