Default Recipe: For those leftover hard-cooked Easter Eggs

OK, this recipe is 20+ years old -- Campbell's doesn't make frozen soups
anymore, I think, so fake it -- they might make a canned Cream of Shrimp
soup.

* Exported from MasterCook Mac *

Shrimp-Sauced Bacon and Eggs

Recipe By : Barb Schaller, and posted to r.f.cooking 3/26/05
Serving Size : 8 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Entrees

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
Eggs:
2 slices bacon -- crisply cooked
8 hard-cooked eggs -- peeled and halved
lengthwise
1/3 cup mayonnaise or salad dressing
1/2 tsp. paprika
1/2 tsp. curry powder -- (1/2 to 3/4)
1/4 tsp. dry mustard
Shrimp Sauce:
2 Tbsp. butter
2 Tbsp. flour
1 can cream of shrimp soup -- (10 oz.)
1 1/4 cup milk (soup can)
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 pkg. small frozen -- (6 oz.) cooked
shrimp
Topping:
1 cup fresh bread crumbs
1 Tbsp. butter -- melted

Crumble the cooked bacon (rather small pieces) and set aside. Scoop egg
yolks from eggs and mash with mayonnaise, paprika, curry powder, and
mustard. Stir in crumbled bacon. Spoon yolk mixture back into white
halves.

Make Shrimp Sauce: Melt butter and flour together; stir. Gradually add
soup and milk; cook until thick and bubbly. Stir in cheese until
melted, then stir in frozen shrimp.

Arrange eggs in a shallow baking dish, about 7x11². Pour sauce over
eggs. Toss bread crumbs in butter and sprinkle on top of eggs and
sauce. Bake at 350° just to heat through, about 15 minutes. Makes 6
servings.

You can serve it atop a toasted English muffin half or not. A tomato
slice between the egg and the muffin isn't a bad thing, either.

DO NOT REHEAT -- it toughens the egg whites.

Gee, with so many people over the years bemoaning the
disappearance of that soup, you'd think Campbell's might take the
hint. I was going to say I had never found a comparable soup of
that ilk, but there was a nice lobster bisque I used to be able to
buy locally. Of course, that disappeared too.

I agree. I used to make a killer shrimp dip using that soup, chopped
shrimp, and other igredients, The canned version just doesn't cut it, so I
don't make it anymore.

This dish shoulds good, though.

I tried it. Once. I found it to be nasty. YMMV.
