GRANPA ENJOYS JUNE EATING

Barb made a nice platter of deviled eggs for a grandchild's barbecue birthday party!

Potato salad for a week night meal.

Lots of barbecue meals! Showing hamburgs and hot dogs! But I have been enjoying cooking chicken and steaks. As you can see I do not like gas barbecues but prefer my little charcoal one!  Cooking outside is so refreshing after being inside for so many months.

Bean salad with many summer meals is always a family favourite and so easy to make. Using those feeds of beans from the garden with canned romano or medley beans with some onion, garlic and Italian dressing!
These dishes are not from my original home in Italy but from my Canadian home with my Canadian family! Lots of good eating for all.

DEVILLED EGGS CANADIAN STYLE

My children and their spouses love devilled eggs. It is such a simple appetizer to make for any family occasion. Actually it is an item Barb makes often. I wondered how the dish got its name. Devilled like the devil means hot. So over the centuries if you added something hot or piccante to the eggs that gave it some kick like the "devil".

Basically boil as many eggs as you need for the crowd you are serving.

After boiling, peel the shell and rinse to make sure no little pieces remain. Cut in half length wise. Put the yolk in a bowl and the white in their halves on a plate.

Mash the yolk together, add mayonnaise and mix well. Like the hot eggs you can add some spice- we don't- just like them with the mayonnaise.

Put the yolk mixture in the egg halves. Add some paprika for colour. A little pepper if you want. Barb likes to add a little fresh parsley leaf. If you do not have fresh, some dried parsley crunched into fine pieces that can be sprinkled over the eggs! An enjoyable addition to any buffet meal!
