Cooking food without the help of a microwave is a critical part of adulting.

Even if you can't whip up wonderfully scrumptious meals like Chrissy Teigen can, stack your chef résumé with a few dishes that will wow your family and friends.

However, it's not just boiled water that'll get you on the right track. You'll need to be able to boil an egg as well.

For those of us still eating animals (sorry vegans), a hard-boiled egg in its most basic form is more than just a post-gym delight or a side dish to bacon and avocado toast.

Essentially, it's the main ingredient to many delicious eats that can fix growling-stomach struggles.

If you can boil an egg, you can make deviled eggs.

That food-less stretch between lunch and dinner can be way too long.

When you're running on low energy and slowly becoming hangry, it's best to gobble up a snack of substance.

Say hello to deviled eggs.

The bite-sized appetizers aren't just for summertime cookouts. They can double as a simple snack whenever your stomach's growling and a handful of almonds will piss you off more than curb your appetite.

No need to boil 16 eggs, unless you're planning a dinner party. Two to four bite-sized halves should hold you over until your evening entree.

However, it's extremely easy to run out of new, tasty options to cook yourself.

Use a few hard-boiled eggs to help bring a grilled chicken cobb salad to life.

And for you true-blue beginners in the kitchen, the chicken is optional.

If you make a big enough portion the night before, you might even have some leftovers for dinner.
