Tips

Store in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. It will get a little watery after the first day.

Hard cook extra eggs for breakfast or snacks.

To make hard cooked eggs, place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water (enough to reach the top of the shells). Cover the pan and bring to a light boil for 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand 15 minutes. Drain, cover with ice water, and let stand until cool.
