Eggs stuffed with meat

How to make meat stuffed eggs.

Within my childhood memories, I have a clear image of family parties and seeing my super busy mother preparing food for everyone.

Among the dishes on the menu was one that never failed, eggs stuffed with tuna or meat .

These types of snacks may be considered a bit old nowadays, understand me, I am a total fan of stuffed eggs but I admit that they are not very fashionable anymore.

They are no longer given as a cover when having a wine except perhaps in the bar in my town, nor is it part of the delicatessen for birthdays and family parties, except for those organized by my mother, of course.

Today I have prepared stuffed eggs , one of the variants that we prepare at home, meat stuffed eggs.

It is a light version, without béchamel sauce that, on this occasion, it does not need, super tasty and very addictive.

We are going to prepare a sauce of vegetables and meat, fill the eggs and give them a touch of cheese, this recipe is so simple and so great. I assure you that they are very good, you will tell me.
