How Long Will Hard Boiled Eggs Keep?
I shared my Simple Snacks Ideas the other day and got a great question in the comments. Jennifer asks: “How long are refrigerated boiled eggs safe to eat. I write the date on the shell in pencil when I boil them, but don’t cook more than 7-8 at a time because I’m not sure about […]

When we go out for breakfast (which we don’t do very often), I love getting a Denver Omelet. There’s just something about the combination of eggs, ham, cheese and bell peppers.
