Colored Deviled Eggs


I just think these are so cool for Easter Dinner! Thanks to Theresa over at Theresa's Mixed Nuts for posting them in her Eater Party Ideas post!

Colored Deviled Eggs
(printable recipe)

You can use your own Deviled Egg recipe if you want. Everyone likes theirs different.
If you don't have a one, here is mine.

6 Eggs
2 Tbsp. mayonnaise
2 tsp. green relish
1/2 tsp. onion powder
1/4 tsp dry mustard

Put eggs in pan and cover with cold water.  Bring to the boil.  Boil 10 minutes.  Remove from heat and place under running cold water.  Once cool. Peel and slice lengthwise.  Remove yolks and place in separate bowl.
Using a separate bowl for each color you want (I did three, pink, yellow and purple) add 1 cup of water, 1 tsp.  Apple Cider Vinegar and your food coloring to each bowl.  Stir to mix color throughout water. Add your egg white halves to each color and let sit about 10 minutes or until the color you want is achieved stirring around every now and then.  Remove and let dry on paper towels.

Meanwhile mash yolks with a fork and add relish, onion powder, mustard powder and mayonnaise.  Mix well and use teaspoons to fill egg halves.  Sprinkle with paprika if desired.
Refrigerate until ready to enjoy!
