4 eggs
2 small tomatoes
Mayonnaise (in squeezy bottle)
Lettuce

Method:

  • Wash hands.
  • To hard boil the eggs, half fill a small saucepan with cold water.  Gently place the eggs in the saucepan and add more water so that they are covered.
  • Bring the water to the boil over medium heat and then reduce to a simmer for 6 minutes.
  • Let the eggs sit in the hot water for about 10 minutes then put them into cold water for 10 minutes.
  • When the eggs are cool, peel the shell.
  • Wash the tomatoes and cut them in half.  Use a teaspoon to scoop out the seeds in the middle.
  • Wash and dry the lettuce and spread it onto a plate.
  • Place the eggs on the lettuce.  If they won’t stand, cut a small slice off the bottom.
  • Carefully place a tomato half on each of the eggs like a hat.
  • Use the squeezy bottle of mayonnaise to make dots on the tomatoes to make them look like mushrooms.

SMARTY TIP: Very fresh eggs are difficult to peel as the shell sticks to the egg.  Instead, use eggs that are a few weeks old but that are still in date.
