"A year's supply of food storage is beneficial in several ways:

1. It provides peace of mind as we obey the counsel to store.

2. It helps ensure survival in case of personal or natural disaster.

3. It strengthens skills in preparing and using basic foods" ("Home Storage: Build on the Basics," Ensign, June 1989, 40).

Add all ingredients, and combine using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Taste, then adjust the seasonings and add any flavorings you like. Place mixture into a plastic bag, and snip tip off with scissors (or use pinking shears for a rosette-style piped looked). Gently squeeze filling into each cooked egg half.
