recipe: bacon, eggs and asparagus

Breakfast - the most important meal of the day! But do you think its worthwhile waking up an extra 30 minutes to make it? It seems to get harder to make time to cook, but breakfast can really be made in 15 minutes if you plan it right. On the left is a layered egg, bacon and asparagus plate which I pulled together before work one morning.

recipe: devilled eggs

Want a savory way to make the most of eggs-tra eggs? I can't believe it took me till college to try devilled eggs, but it was a happy party in my mouth that summer evening.

The name is a bit of a misnomer, because the eggs are not really spicy. Seems like the old-fashioned name is a bit of a throwback to the 18th century when the term "deviled" referred to any dish that was highly seasoned. Either their palates were very bland in those ages, or mustard was a lot more pungent then!
