\"Patriotic<\/a>
Patriotic Deviled Eggs<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This is either a desperate cry for professional help or a fun way to celebrate Memorial Day, 4th of July and Labor Day cookouts.<\/p>\n

Take your favorite Deviled Egg recipe and throw in a little reverse Easter egg dying, and you\u2019ve got the weirdest yet best addition to any potluck.<\/p>\n

For my sized large platter, I boiled 18 eggs and then peeled them as they were warm so they came off easily. Cut them in half and reserve the yolk in a separate bowl for your filling.<\/p>\n

Count out the number of red and blue halves you need, then prepare the dye according to the package directions of ordinary food coloring. I used a few drops of color, vinegar and boiling water in a cups and then let the colors cool slightly before coloring the whites.

\"Dying<\/a>
Dying eggs from the inside out<\/figcaption><\/figure>
\nPlace the whites in the color for 3-5 minutes each for desired color. It is a much faster and brighter process than shelled eggs, so keep that in mind.<\/p>\n

Drain on paper towels, hole-side down until ready to fill with your favorite deviled egg filling. I used my Deviled Eggs Benedict<\/a> recipe.<\/p>\n

\"Dyed<\/a>

Arrange on large rectangular platter in the shape of a flag, and start singing the anthem.<\/p>\n

Feel free to bring them to therapy.<\/p>\n
