8 Hard Boiled Eggs, cooled and shelled
4 Tablespoons Mayonnaise
Lettuce Leaves
Pimiento-stuffed Green Olives
Chocolate Sprinkles
Toothpicks
Directions:

On a large plate, lay out lettuce leaves and put aside. Remove the Pimento from the olives, cutting each Pimento into three pieces (nose and eyes). Slice the olives the long way into 32 thin slices (tails). Cut 32 triangular pieces of green olives (ears).

Slice each peeled egg in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks and place in a small bowl to make an egg salad mixture. Using a fork, mash yolks till pulpy, add Mayonnaise and continue to mash/stir till well blended. Gently fill each egg white half with the yolk mixture and using a butter knife, scrape away any yolk mixture that is on the white part. Place the egg halves – yolk side down – onto the lettuce leaves. These are the bodies ready to be made into mice. Insert one Pimento piece at the edge of the pointy part of the egg, and add two Pimento pieces for the eyes above the nose. Use a slice of green olive for the tail. Use two triangle olive pieces for the ears and insert into the egg white after using a paring knife to make a small slit. Between the eyes and the nose, insert two toothpicks on each side of the mouse face (whiskers). In between the “egg mice”, put tiny heaps of chocolate sprinkles (mice poop).
