Ingredients

6 Eggs
1 Tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 Tablespoon Dill Pickle minced
1/2 Teaspoon Paprika
1 Pinch Sea Salt
Instructions

Place the eggs in a pot of cold water and bring to a rolling boil, then turn the heat to medium. Hard-boil the eggs for 12–15 minutes, depending on their size; an extra-large egg will take up to 17 minutes. Turn off the heat, allowing the eggs to sit in hot water for 2 minutes, then gently remove them from the water and set aside to cool.
When the eggs are cool, peel and cut in half lengthwise. Gently scoop out the center yolk. In a small bowl, mash the cooked egg yolks with a fork, and mix in the olive oil, pickle, paprika, and salt. Scoop the yolk mixture back into the egg white halves and sprinkle with a little more paprika.
Store covered in the refrigerator. The eggs will remain fresh for at least 5 days.

Enjoy as a snack or an addition to a salad…simply yumfulness!

FMU The Daily Wellthy: Go nutty

A walnut is the nut of any tree of the genus Juglans, particularly the Persian or English walnut, Juglans regia. Technically a walnut is the seed of a drupe or drupaceous nut, and thus not a true botanical nut.
