Chef Washington is here to share tips and hacks to make any gathering an unqualified success.  This amazing chef and recipe developer will show everyone how to turn any regular celebration into a super party for less.  There are still several weeks of summer to enjoy, so here is an easy way to get advice from the expert on any outdoor party.

WHAT TO ALWAYS INCLUDE IN A BACKYARD BASH

Deviled eggs are a must have favorite, and Incredible Egg is right when they say there is nothing an egg can not crack.  Eggs are easy, affordable, convenient, and versatile. Whether hosting or looking for something fun to bring to a backyard bash, deviled eggs are the perfect solution.  Prepare the filling ahead of time, refrigerate it in a bag, and then cut the tip and pipe the eggs right before serving them.  Classic deviled eggs never disappoint, or, put a creative twist, like these quinoa and Greek yogurt eggs.  Or even eggs with a guacamole filling and tortilla chip garnish.  Visit IncredibleEgg.org for these recipes and to share personal creative egg dishes using #CrackItWithAnEgg.

A TIME SAVING IDEA FOR ENTERTAINING

KFC has everyone covered for  next backyard bash, so you can sit back, relax, and enjoy your celebration.  For a limited time only, KFC has brought back their fan favorite Mac and Cheese Bowls for just $5!  The bowls come in classic or spicy and feature KFC’s rich and creamy cheddar mac and cheese, topped with crispy popcorn chicken, and a sprinkle of a three cheese blend.  If feeding a big crowd, try KFC’s 12 piece meal.  That is 12 pieces of chicken and includes a free beverage bucket of any choice!  To streamline the party planning, place an order for Quick Pick Up on KFC.com or the KFC App or even pre-schedule!
