YUM! Being a sardine lover and keeping a huge supply in my pantry at all times, and always having boiled eggs in the fridge for snacks this recipe was right up my alley. I never would have thought of combining the two like this though. Great recipe and they're also quite pretty (and impressive) to look at too! Thanks for sharing the recipe Julie, I'll be making these a lot. Made for Bargain Basement tag game.
