Mushroom Hard Boiled Egg

I have vivid memories about Easter time in my family. My mother used to make hard boiled eggs and decorate them as mushrooms for lunch. I was always so impressed because they looked like real mushrooms. She would make them while we were playing outside, so when we would come back for lunch, a beautiful plate with « mushrooms» decorating the center of the table was awaiting for us.

Ingredients

For 6:
6 hard boiled eggs
6 Italian tomatoes
Mayonnaise

Directions

1. Peel the eggs and cut a slice at the large end to enable them to stand up. This is what your egg will sit on so it doesn't roll away.
2. Cut tomatoes around 3/4 from bottom stem. Use the last 1/4 to make hats for the eggs. You may need to core those hats slightly to make them fit.
3. Use mayonnaise to make dots on the tomatoes to simulate mushrooms.

Tips 
Use toothpicks if necessary to stick the tomatoes to the eggs. Be careful to advise your guest.
