Easter Deviled Eggs
Here is a fun, easy and elegant way to make deviled eggs for Easter this year.
Peel the eggs and dry on a paper towel.
Place them on a plate and refrigerate,
covered with plastic wrap until cold.
Once they are cold use a sharp thin knife,
I use a cheese knife, and slice the cold
egg evenly in half lengthwise.
Carefully remove the yolk
placing them into a bowl.
Using a pastry blender or fork, smash the
yolks into little pieces. Add enough Miracle
Whip (or mayonnaise) and a little salt, to your
taste. Using your mixer, blend until smooth.
Put your egg yolk mixture into a pastry bag
or cut the tip off of a Ziploc bag and use that.
Now it’s time to color the egg white halves.
Put 4-6 drops of one color of food coloring into
one cup of water. Soak the egg halves until you
get the color of brightness you want. Remove
from the colored water and carefully pat
dry with a paper towel.
Squeeze the yolk mixture into each egg
center. Garnish with paprika. Place a
piece of parsley in the center, optional.

Ingredients
- 1 dozen hard boiled eggs
- Miracle Whip (or mayonnaise) to taste
- salt to taste
- food coloring (not the egg color kit)
- paprika for garnish
- parsley for garnish
Directions
- Peel the eggs and dry on a paper towel. Place eggs on a plate, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until completely cold.
- Using a sharp thin knife, like a cheese knife, slice the eggs in half lengthwise.
- Carefully remove the yolk and place them into a bowl. Smash the yolks into small pieces, use a pastry blender or a fork to do this. Add Miracle Whip (or mayonnaise) to the yolks, to your taste. Add a little salt, to your taste. Using a mixer, mix the egg yolk mixture until smooth.
- Spoon the yolk mixture into a pastry bag, or cut the tip off the end of a Ziploc bag and spoon the yolk mixture into it.
- To color the white of the egg, place 4-6 drops of food coloring into one cup of water and submerge the white halves of the egg one at a time. Remove when the egg is the color you want.
- Pat the colored egg halves dry with a paper towel carefully. Squeeze yolk mixture from the bag into each egg half indentation.
- Lightly sprinkle with paprika and top with a small piece of parsley leaf.

Thank you Emily and have fun!
Ohmygosh I didn’t know we could do that!!! How pretty!!!! Runs to see if we have any food coloring.
Not sure what happened but my comment disappeared. So doing this not just next year for Easter but how good for any celebration. Its something older kids can help with and have fun doing it.
Orange for Halloween etc. They are a huge hit for any occasion.
What a neat idea to color the whites! I would have never thought to do that 🙂 I know what I am doing for Easter this year! Thank you for the great idea; I look forward to surprising my family!
You’re welcome they will be a big hit. Just make sure you use the water and food coloring. The first year I ALMOST dumped them I the kids egg coloring which has vinegar…lol
I love this idea! Will definitely try these this week. 😉
They are so simple with food coloring and water. They will be a big hit! Let me know how they turn out please. ❤️
I was delighted to see this post, Diane. My mother did something similar. She dyed the peeled eggs whole. How clever of you to slice the peeled eggs and remove the yolks before dyeing the egg halves! I hadn’t thought about doing that. I love learning new techniques! Very pretty!
You’re welcome Janet! My daughter actually made these a few years ago so I stole the idea from her…lol
Lovely 🙂 I always learn something new in your posts Diane! Thank you!!
Great that is what makes my blog worth it! Thank you for your kind words!
No pickles or relish?
Nope I have eaten deviled eggs this way my entire life. I know a lot of people like mustard too but nice and simple for me. Lol
