How To Make green eggs and ham !

  • 1
    Put 12 eggs in a pan of cold water. Bring the water to a full boil, then set your timer for 5 minutes. When time is up. Let sit to cool a bit.
  • Boiled Eggs with the yolks removed.
    2
    Peel the egg shells off of the eggs. Cut eggs in half, remove the yolks from the whites and put them in a bowl, set the whites on a plate.
  • 3
    Using the tines of a fork, crumble the egg yolks.
  • Minced celery and minced onion.
    4
    Mix in the onion and celery.
  • 5
    Add the mustard and ranch dressing sparingly until it reaches the right consistancy. Add salt and pepper. Stirring together well.
  • I first added blue food coloring and then a bit of green to reach my desired color for my green eggs.
    6
    Add the blue food coloring and if necessary add some green food coloring to reach your desired color, stirring well.
  • Heaping Tablespoon of pickle relish. (This is my home made relish).
    7
    Add pickle relish, stirring well. Set this aside until ready to fill the egg white halves.
  • 8
    Finely mince or grind up the ham. Add all the remaining ham ingredients together stirring well to desired consistancey as you did with the egg yolks.
  • 9
    Fill or over fill your egg whites with both of the fillings. You can spoon the filling or pipe it into the egg white halves.
  • Green Eggs and Ham!

    If you have a deviled egg platter, place the eggs in desired arrangement. *** We always read the book "Green Eggs and Ham" with the kids when we make this..... Enjoy!
