I have 4 dozen eggs that I need to cook?

Egg and potato salad.
Egg custard.
Scrambled eggs.
Devilled eggs.
Hard boiled eggs.

There is no rush to use them they will last months past their use by date in the fridge.
It is recommended you use withe 4 weeks, so a dozen eggs a week would be my suggestion.

A tray of 30 lasts us (2 people) about 10 days.

Remember that if you boil half a dozen and rapidly cool the eggs will cease to cook if you keep them in the egg section of the fridge. That way if you want a semi soft egg for brekkie, just take one out, put it in an egg cup to come to room temperature and enjoy.
 
Do you have to cook them all at once? Deviled eggs are a favorite in my house.

You can hard boil some and 'pickle' them with vinegar and beets. That is also good.

If you can't use them all, is there a food pantry or soup kitchen that could use the excess?
 
Yum - egg salad, quiche, breakfast casserole, deviled eggs. Look up the recipes - that's what I'd have to do.
 
Here are some eggy ideas... Enjoy! <3

Pickled Eggs

Ingredients:
15 to 18 hard-boiled eggs
3 cups vinegar
1 cup water
1 teaspoon salt
pickling spices, if desired

Preparation:
Sterilize jars and have new lids and clean bands ready.
Shell them eggs, see Helpful Hints for PerfectAngel's Hard Boiled Egg Tips, I been screwing them up for years till I followed her tip. Place them in hot sterilized jars.
Boil together vinegar, water, salt and spices if desired. Pour over eggs while very hot. Seal immediately with hot sterilized lids. The eggs will keep indefinately.
 
Why not make a large batch of Egg salad with at least 1 dozen of the eggs. Also hard boil some of them and make deviled eggs or just have some boiled to snack on
 
Cook them up and have them cold in a salad (peel them first). cook them cut in half scoop the yolk and mix with curry powder and a little milk. cook them, mix a little mayonnaise and have in a sandwich and lettuce (I have iceburg lettuce chopped). Good old scrabbled eggs.An omelette.Make a cake, Make biscuits(cookies),scones. Fried egg on toast or poached eggs.
