"Secret Ingredient" Scrambled Eggs

I love good scrambled eggs. 
They take just a few minutes to make
 and these are yummy!
This is a so-easy way to give scrambled eggs
 a big flavor boost. No measuring really.
It's a secret because no one can guess just 
what's been added. Ranch Dressing!
 Just add a glop when you're whisking the eggs. 
As you usually do along with a splash of milk 
and some salt and pepper. 
Just whisk everything together.
You can play around with the amounts until
you get the flavor you like. I give an idea
of the amounts in the recipe below. Adjust
for however many eggs you are making.
I also add chopped
chives (from my garden) because it adds
just a little more mystery. You can 
experiment with other herbs too.
Cook in butter in a skillet on medium heat, 
stirring in the cheese last. Serve on warm plates
with buttered toast.

Favorite Deviled Eggs

 Everybody loves deviled eggs. 
 Add eggs to a large pot and cover with water. 
Add 2T vinegar. The vinegar helps with the
 peeling later. Bring to a boil, cover, and take 
off heat. let sit for 15 - 18 minutes.
Drain off hot water and fill the pot
with cold water. Peel when the eggs are cool 
enough to handle. 
Cut in half lengthwise, Remove the yolks to
a food processor. If you don't have one, put in
a bowl and use a whisk to blend the yolk mixture.
 Add the yolk mixture to a plastic baggie. 
Use a jar or glass to hold the baggie upright.
 Snip one corner of the baggie and use it like a 
pastry bag to fill the egg whites.
 If you used a food processor, the yolk mixture 
will be very smooth and creamy.
Refrigerate until serving time, then garnish
with a sprig of chive or a sprinkle of paprika
