Super simple. Attractive and tasty way to get rid of leftover Easter eggs. Using eggs that have been boiled and sitting in the fridge for a day or two makes slicing easier. Boiling your eggs with a little salt makes for easier peeling. Try adding different things to the recipe, very versatile. I like adding Greek olives, or occasionally baby spinach leaves tossed with balsamic vinaigrette. It also works well with grated parmesan cheese, or other hard white cheeses.
Ingredients:
1 -2 hard-boiled egg, sliced
1/2 red peppers, yellow pepper or 1/2 green pepper, sliced into strips
1 teaspoon mayonnaise or 1 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon pickle relish (sweet or dill)
black pepper, cayenne pepper or hot sauce
salt (optional)
1 pita bread round (i use whole-grain pita)
Directions:
1. Remove yolks from egg slices, cream together with mayo or olive oil, relish, pepper or hot sauce, and salt.
2. Microwave pita bread for about 10 seconds. Slice warm round in half and gently pry open the pocket. Spread the yolk and mayo mixture inside the pocket.
3. Arrange egg slices and pepper strips inside the pocket. Plate up and enjoy.
