EASTER DEVILED EGGS RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthwise. Transfer the yolks to a large bowl and refrigerate the whites until you are ready to dye them.
• Mash the yolks well with a fork or potato masher. Add the mayonnaise, mustard, and 1/2 teaspoon of vinegar. Mix well, then add salt and pepper to taste, as needed. Refrigerate the filling until you are ready to fill the egg whites.
• Place 1 cup of water in a glass or bowl. Add 1 teaspoon of white vinegar to the container along with 2 to 3 drops of food coloring. Repeat with additional containers of colors. (Note: For lavender, use equal parts blue and red.)
• Gently rinse the egg white halves to wash off any remaining yolk, then place the whites in the colored water. Depending on the color, it will take 1 minute or more to dye the eggs a light pastel color.
• Place the dyed egg whites on a tray and let them dry.
• Pipe or spoon the filling into the dyed egg halves, then garnish with paprika, if desired.

EASTER CHICK DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Slice through the top 1/3 of each egg, ensuring some of the yolk is included in the slice. Carefully remove the egg yolk from the bottom portion of the egg using a spoon and transfer to a bowl.
• Mix egg yolks, mayonnaise, mustard, pickle, horseradish, pickle juice, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Fill a piping bag or a plastic bag with a corner snipped with the egg yolk mixture. Pipe egg yolk mixture into the hollowed egg whites creating the 'chick', ensuring there is enough filling to add 'eyes' and a 'beak.'
• Slice small wedges out of the carrot rounds creating 12 'beaks'. Add a 'beak' to each 'chick'.
• Slice olive pieces into small squares to be used as 'eyes.' Add 2 'eyes' to each 'chick.' Place the egg tops onto each 'chick' to look like a chick peaking out of the egg.
