Ingredients:
  • 6 hard boiled eggs (large or exra large)
  • 1 TBS. mayonnaise

  • 1 1/2 tsp. horse radish
  • 1 tsp. relish
  • 1/2 tsp. finely diced red Bermuda onion
  • 1/4 tsp. dried ginger
  • dash of ground black pepper
  • dash of pink Himalayan salt

  2. Bring water to a rapid boil for 1 minute.
  3. Cover the pot and remove eggs from the heat.
  4. Large eggs should sit in the boiled water for 12 minutes and extra large for 15.
  5. Drain the eggs and cool before peeling.
  6. Cut eggs into 12 neat halves.
  7. Gently scoop out the egg yolk and place in medium mixing bowl.
  8. Put the 12 sliced egg white halves on a plate.
  9. Add the mayonnaise, mustard, horse radish, relish, onion, dry ginger, black pepper, and sea salt to the egg yolks.
  10. Mix all ingredients thoroughly by hand with a spoon.
  11. Scoop out and place enough mixture to fill the 12 sliced egg white halves.

YUM FACTOR: These deviled eggs are creamy with a slight kick and a hint of sweetness. Something for everyone.
NUTRISH FACTOR: Eggs whites are an amazing source of high quality available amino acids- the building blocks of protein. The cooked egg yolk is an excellent source of biotin-one of the B Complex vitamins necessary for energy production and healthy nails, skin & hair.The recommended daily allowance for biotin in adults is 30 mcgs. and one cooked egg provides 25mcgs.

Ingredients:
  • 12 Medjool dates
  • 36 Marcona Almonds
  • 6 raw uncured bacon slices cut in half 
  • 1 TBS pure maple syrup
  • 1 macintosh apple

Instructions:
  1. Score each date
  2. Remove and discard pit
  3. Lightly sautee the almonds. No additional oil is needed 
  4. Stuff each date with 3 almonds
  5. Cut the raw bacon in half
  6. Tightly wrap each date in a bacon strip
  7. Drizzle with pure maple syrup
  8. Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 20 minutes
  9. Peel & slice 1 apple into 12- 1/8" flat slices
  10. Plate apple slices
  11. Place 1 cooked bacon wrapped-stuffed date on each apple slice
  12. Serve warm with decorative tooth picks
YUM FACTOR: This mini wrap is a burst of amazing tastes and textures- sweet, creamy, crunchy, salty all covered with the rich flavor and chewiness of pork fat to satisfy a multitude of taste bud cravings.
NUTRISH FACTOR: Bacon is a rich source of Choline, an important nervous system nutrient which may also decrease swelling and inflammation in asthma. Bacon provides B-Complex vitamins, zinc, magnesium & iron and there's a surprisingly high protein to fat ratio- 4:1. Buy uncured/no added nitrate-nitrite brands and don't over cook or char your bacon to reduce creating nitrates and nitrites. Avoid microwaving bacon, and other animal proteins, which may create cancer promoting mutated proteins.
