A fun, colorful, easy Easter Deviled Eggs recipe. Sure to be a crowd please and make a statement at your Easter get together!

Ingredients
  

For the Colored Halves
  • 18 Hardboiled Eggs
  • 1 cup water (in each glass)
  • 1 tsp white distilled vinegar (in each glass)
  • various food coloring
For the Egg Filling
  • 3/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 3 tsp mustard
  • 3 tsp white distilled vinegar
  • salt & pepper (to taste)
  • paprika (for garnish)

Equipment

  • Measuring Cup
  • 4 Water Glasses (+1 for the filling)
  • Gallon Ziplock Bag
  • Hand Mixer (optional)

Method
 

  1. Pour 1 cup of water, 1 tsp of vinegar, and drops of food coloring in each glass. The food coloring should tell you how many drops you need for each desired colors.
  2. Peel & cut your hardboiled eggs in half lengthwise.
  3. Remove your egg yolks into a bowl
  4. Add the cut egg halves into the glasses filled with the water/vinegar/food coloring mixture.
  5. While they sit, work on your filling. Add mayo, mustard, vinegar, salt, and pepper to your bowl with the egg yolks.
  6. Use your hand mixer to get an ultra smooth consistency.
  7. Once you get the desired consistency and taste, take a gallon zip lock bag and stick it inside a tall glass. You can refrigerate in the bag until you're ready to fill the eggs.
  8. Check your eggs for the desired color. There's no real right time. If you want them lighter, they probably need about 10 minutes. If you want a darker color, you may need to add more time or food coloring.
  9. Remove your eggs from each glass with a pair of tongs or something to avoid dipping your hands in. Set on paper towel.
  10. Once the eggs are dry, add to your serving platter.
  11. Add your filling to the zip lock bag and cut the tip. This will create a piping bag and make it easier to fill the eggs
  12. Fill the eggs with the piping bag
  13. Add paprika for garnish

Notes

The deviled egg filling is derived from the recipe from Dessert Now Dinner Later. I use her filling recipe to make all my deviled eggs.
