This has become a go to recipe for us whenever we have leftover pulled pork. You can also use chicken or really any other meat that you want. If you have leftovers or meat already prepared this dish is super fast and easy to put together!
We started by heating up the pork in a small pan. At the same time – boil water for a couple of eggs. In a 3rd pan, add some bone broth. We were fortunate enough to grab some from our favorite meat market here in AZ last week, but you can work with any brand of bone broth or stock. Bring your broth to a simmer and add in coconut aminos, salt & pepper, gochujang, ginger, lime juice and garlic. (I’ll share approximate amounts, but it’s really all to your taste/preference)
Don’t forget about your eggs. We prefer a nice soft boiled egg which is about 6-6.5 minutes. Add your eggs to boiling water then set a timer.
After you simmer for a few minutes and make sure your broth tastes just how you like, turn the heat up to a boil and add your noodles. They take about five minutes so should be done right about the same time as your eggs! We used the above pictured soba noodles, but there are a variety of options you can use! We also had some shiitake mushrooms in the fridge so we sliced them pretty thin and added in with the noodles.
Once your eggs are done – peel and slice in half. Put your noodles and mushrooms in a bowl and top with your pork. (or whatever meat you are using!)
Then, ladle in your hot broth. Top with and egg and cilantro. Feel free to add any other ingredients you like – hot sauce, thin slice radishes, scallions, other veggies? Grab some extra napkins as it can get kind of messy! Enjoy!

Deviled Eggs
A favorite snack of mine – I love eggs cooked just about any way! My friends and family keep asking for this recipe. I didn’t really think there was a recipe for deviled eggs, but I guess everyone has their own little secret. So – I’ll share my process.
First of all – I only buy large, organic eggs. You have to do your research here on who you are buying from as the industry is not regulated very well and the labeling can be very misleading. Local farms are the best, but there are a few grocery store options I am also good with. Farm fresh eggs are just as good as a tomato picked right off your backyard garden plant! Then – I follow this website’s exact process for boiling my eggs. There is no reason to reinvent the wheel here – this one is absolutely perfect! I follow this to the tee and cook mine right around 10 minutes for my deviled eggs.
They peel super easy every time (use the ice water bath!) and then the yolks pop right out with no problems. Cut your eggs in half and pop the yolks into a medium size bowl. I made about 18 eggs this time. My carrier only fits 2 dozen (halves), but I was taking to a big party so made a few extra.
Next, I add in some mustard. I make a homemade mustard from my banana peppers I grown in my garden. It’s fantastic – a little tangy, slight spice. You can use a store bought mustard. (I will share my recipe soon as I’m waiting to pick enough banana peppers currently). I would look for a tangy maybe honey mustard – should be kind of dark like this:
Next, add in some mayo. Again, I much prefer to use homemade and it’s so easy to make: avocado oil, 1 whole egg, squeeze of lemon juice, mustard powder, pinch of salt. It’s creamier than the store bought and tastes way better. If you are in a rush it’s totally fine to use one from the store. I like the Primal Kitchen avocado oil mayo (it’s sold on Amazon or lots of other places including Target). For my 18 eggs I used about 1/2-2/3 cup of both the mustard and mayo – it’s all about preference and texture. Just add a little of each and you can continue to add more until it’s perfect for you. I also pour in a little apple cider vinegar or if I have pickled red onions in the fridge I’ll use a little of that juice – just about a tablespoon.
Next comes my secret ingredient! I love this stuff! We purchased this for the first time at the Old Town Scottsdale farmers market, but don’t worry – you can buy it online! Saucy lips have great sauces that you can use to marinade meats, use as dressings, or put in things like deviled eggs! The Zesty cilantro is what I use for this one. I use quite a bit as I want the flavor to show about the mayo and mustard. Just mix in about a 1/4 cup and then keep adding to your preference. Here is what my final mix looks like..
I try my best to get the eggs as smooth as possible so the mix is easier to “pipe” into your egg whites. I do not have any fancy piping tips as – I do NOT bake 🙂 So, I dump this into a zip lock bag and cut the corner off and squeeze. If you have larger chunks of egg you will just have to cut a bigger hole into your baggie.
In case you’ve never done this before.. here is what I’m talking about. Just cut that little corner and start piping! That’s it! If you want to make them look pretty for serving you could sprinkle on some paprika or some diced chives on top. Or some micro-cilantro if you are using the saucy lips already. There are so many different ways you can dress up your eggs! I didn’t this time as they were being transported in my little carry case and I was just keeping it easy. Enjoy!
