Ingredients:
Instructions:
1. Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with cold water.
2. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.
3. Once the water reaches a rolling boil, cover the saucepan with a lid, turn off the heat, and let the eggs sit for 10-12 minutes.
4. After 10-12 minutes, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool for about 5 minutes.
1. Once the eggs are cool, peel the shells off.
2. Slice each egg in half lengthwise.
1. Carefully remove the yolks from the egg halves and place them in a small mixing bowl.
2. Mash the yolks with a fork until they are crumbly.
3. Add the mustard and salsa sauce to the mashed yolks and mix until well combined. You should have a smooth and creamy mixture.
1. Spoon the yolk mixture back into the hollowed egg whites. Be generous with the filling for a "loaded" effect.
2. Garnish as desired (optional) with cilantro, chives, or a sprinkle of smoked paprika for added flavor and presentation.
1. Arrange the filled egg halves on a serving plate.
2. Serve immediately and enjoy your Egg Salsa Boats as a delicious snack or appetizer!
Tips:
- For a smoother yolk mixture, you can use a blender or food processor.
- Feel free to customize the filling by adding chopped veggies like bell peppers, onions, or cilantro for extra flavor and crunch.
- For a bit of heat, consider adding a dash of hot sauce or finely chopped jalapeños to the yolk mixture.
- Make sure not to overcook the eggs, as this can result in a rubbery texture.
Egg salsa boats are a fantastic way to enjoy a quick, tasty, and nutritious snack. They are perfect for parties, as a treat for the kids, or just a healthy bite between meals. With minimal ingredients and simple steps, this recipe is a go-to for egg lovers.
