Colorful Deviled Eggs For Easter

One of my favorite recipes to make on Easter is Deviled Easter Eggs. You boil your eggs and peel them. Make up your egg colors like you are dying eggs. Dip your boiled, peeled eggs in the dye, until the whites of the eggs change color.

Let your eggs dry and then devil them. They are beautiful served on a clear egg dish.

Use Baggie as Thrifty Pastry Bag for Deviled Eggs

With summer almost here and graduations parties, barbecues, and holidays near, a good thing to make for the parties is deviled eggs. Not only are deviled eggs economical, they are easy. Once you have your eggs hard boiled, scoop the yoke into a baggie, and mix your favorite filling in it. I use salad dressing, a little dry mustard, and some pickle relish. Once the filling is mixed in the bag, cut one corner off and use as you would a frosting bag. You can pipe it in the hole. No mess and no dishes to clean up.

The baggie tip can also be used to make designs on cupcakes and cakes that go along with the food for your party. Gives you more free time to enjoy the parties!

Kitchen Tools for Deviled Eggs

When making deviled eggs, I use 2 tools that help simplify the task and help in making the eggs look more uniform.

After peeling the eggs and cutting them in half, I put the yolks through a hand grater (the type that has a small compartment for the food and has a turn handle). This makes the yolks easier to mix with your dressings and seasonings.

I use a small scoop (like a miniature ice cream scoop) that has a release button to scoop uniform amounts of the mix into the egg white halves. I top my eggs with a dash of Old Bay. They look neater this way. (I got my small scoop from Pampered Chef.)

Deviled Eggs With Crab Meat

I'm making deviled eggs with crab meat. Is it best to keep the hard boiled eggs in the fridge overnight and then make the filling the next morning? This is a dish I have to bring to work. So should I leave the shells on and make the filling the next morning?

Make sure you keep them cold until it is time to eat, just like any other mayo based salad.

Filling Deviled Eggs

When filling deviled eggs with the filling, put the mixture in a plastic bag and cut one corner off and then squeeze some into each half of egg. It comes out smooth and even and they look more presentable. By Leanne (04/19/2005)

When making deviled eggs, put cooked egg yolks in a ziplock bag. Mash with your fingers. Add mayo and whatever you add to your deviled eggs (some people add mustard). Mash with fingers until mixed. Open one corner of the bag and squeeze into egg halves. If you don't need it all, then you can refrigerate the rest. No mess. No cleanup. Just throw bag away when finished

These deviled eggs are made and served with the holiday dinners. They're too special to make often.


When making deviled eggs its so hard to fill the egg with a spoon. I put the mixture into a plastic bag and snip the corner and use it as a pastry bag. Works great and no more mess.

Brighten up your dinner with colored deviled eggs. After you have boiled your eggs, let them cool and drop them into egg coloring.
