Quick and Easy Egg Salad 

Filed under: Salad on Monday, April 28th, 2008 by Justin | No Comments

Egg Salad

Boil 8 large eggs for approximately 20 minutes. Some recommend using oil in the water to make the eggs peel easier.

Drain eggs and sit in cold (ice cubes added) water for 10-15 minutes.

Peel eggs and put in bowl.

I use a knife to chop up the eggs. There are probably quicker ways such as a real chopper but this method works for me.

Use between 1/8 and 1/4 cup mustard depending on your liking for mustard. Spicy mustard can be used if a little kick is wanted.

Add in 1 1/2 cup of mayonnaise.

Stir all ingredients together and that’s it! Serve on bread or even better toasted bread.

1/8 cup of pickle relish can also be used. The above picture does not have and pickle relish added.

Enjoy!

BBQ Chicken Pizza on the Grill 

Filed under: Grill on Saturday, March 22nd, 2008 by Justin | No Comments

I caught this episode on the Food Network a little late but she had already cooked the chicken breasts and it looked like they had pepper on them.. Next she rolled out a pre-made square pizza crust onto a baking sheet with round holes in it. She had also sprayed the sheet with Pam or something so the crust would not stick. She said to just place the dough on the sheet not to press it so it went through the holes. She then put it on the grill and covered it. While the dough was cooking she sliced up the chicken breast, an apple, and also 2-3 scallions. By the time she was done the dough was ready to be flipped. She flipped it and let it finish right on the grill, no baking pan. Next she put what looked to be KC Masterpice BBQ sauce on the pizza dough. (I would have used Montgomery Inn probably) and spread it out. Next up came the apple slices, followed by the pizza and then some shredded mozzarella cheese. She let that cook for five or so minutes until the cheese was melted and then took it off of the grill. She topped with the cut scallions. Sounds good to me! Here’s the complete BBQ Chicken Pizza on the grill recipe. I also found this Thai Chicken Pizza recipe while I was searching. This one sounds good also, and spicy!
