Notes
Smart Shopping Tips
- Avoid buying eggs that are broken or cracked.
- Purchase eggs that are marked Grade AA or A. Most recipes call for large eggs.
- Check the date on the egg carton. Always purchase eggs before the “sell by” date.
- Keep eggs in their original cartons and stored in the body of the refrigerator instead of the door to keep them chilled effectively.
- Serve cooked eggs or dishes containing eggs immediately after cooking. Use leftovers within 3 to 4 days.
- Add a variety of herbs including thyme, parsley and rosemary for enhanced flavor.
- For some Southwestern flair, add a small can of diced chilies or jalapeños.
