Hellmann’s Real Holiday Helpings Website and (Giveaway Closed)

Hellmann’s has a great new site up for the holidays. They have paired with Bobby Flay, an awesome chef, to bring us great recipes for the holidays. Plus, there are coupons available on the site for Hellman’s. There is also an awesome giveaway for free groceries and videos with Bobby Flay demonstrating his recipes with Hellmann’s mayonnaise. I love this, because you not only get to watch him make the dish, you can also print out the recipe.

On the site, you can play games each day for a chance to win a $50 Grocery Gift Card and free groceries for a year. This is separate from the sweetstakes you can enter on the site for free groceries for a year.

Now, I didn‘t see my favorite recipe using Hellmann‘s Mayonnaise. It is for devilled eggs. It is such an easy recipe. I don’t do any measuring, thought. I have been using this recipe for so long, that I do it by sight. Actually, it is a recipe that I learned from my mom. I don’t recall her ever using a printed recipe or measuring anything out for it, either. I use 6 – 12 eggs, depending on how many people I am feeding. I place the eggs into a pot of water with a little bit of salt. This makes it a little easier to peel the eggs. I boil the eggs until done.

Next, I cook up about a half pound of bacon until crispy. I lay out the bacon onto a paper towel to soak up the excess grease. I take the eggs and peel all of them. Then, I take out a plate and a bowl. I cut each egg in half and scoop out the yolk. I place the halves onto the plate. When I have all of the eggs cut in half, and the yolks in a bowl, I add some mayonnaise to the yolk and stir. I put enough mayonnaise into it to give it a creamy consistency. I take the cooked bacon and crumble them up into the yolk/mayonnaise mixture, then stir. All that is left is to scoop the mixture into the waiting egg halves and voila. I’m done. It’s a simple recipe, but oh so yummy.
