 So. Now you've got a ton of hard-boiled eggs on your hands. Because y'know-- it's Easter. You're gonna be making Egg Salad sandwiches. For Days. To take some of those eggs off you're hands right now-- transform them into something everybody loves, Deviled Eggs.

Only today you're going to make them Really Festive. Because it's Easter. I must be joking, right. Because it's April Fools Day too. Yeah I know you've got a milli+ things to do today. My list goes something like this: Prep Baskets. Check. Hide Eggs Outside. Check (just did that in the dark-- that was great, lemme tell ya. Hahahahah) Pop Open Champagne. Drink. Prep Crepes. Bake the Bunny. Assemble Subs. Make Crepes. Deviled Eggs. Decorate Bunny Cake. Crab Legs. Watch Jesus Christ Superstar. So, I got ya, as you can see I have some more stuff to do, (prob /def/! not as much as you-- I like it lo-fi around here). and I slid those Deviled Eggs in there. So it's no joke to make these today. They are impressive with minimal effort. Plus, the kids can do these themselves.

Really- they can do it themselves. I'm not joking about that part either. Last year I went a little strong on the food coloring. I L-O-V-E-D the final result, because it looks like a Technicolor Dream, (these photos are from last years Deviled Egg Experience-- get back at me next year to see how Easter '18 turned out) ) but this year I'm hoping to get some pretty pastels. 

That's where the kids come in. They are Waaaaaaaay better at crafts & cooking then me- no joke. Here's how you do it:

Ingredients>
-Hard-boiled Eggs
-Food Coloring
-Mayonaisse
-Dijon Mustard
-Horseradish
-Salt n' Pepa

Crack those eggs, Dah'lins. Slice 'em in half. Scoop out that yolk and set it aside in a dish. Grab some small bowls- like finger bowls or ramekins. You can even use a glass or cup. Fill them halfway up with water. Squeeze some drops of food coloring into the water. Drop the eggs in there. After they have achieved the desired color, remove them. Place them on a paper towel. Pat them dry before filling. 

Aaaaand- you're done. I mean, you still have to swirl that creamy yolk into the egg. But- you're basically finished. Easy, right! Told ya! No April Foolin' here. But if you DO want to play a trick on someone- here ya go. 

I have no measurements for the filling, because I always wing it. Plus, I was drinking. All Day. Like, from start to finish, hahahaha. So I really just mixed the ingredients up in a bowl and threw it into the egg. You can tell that's what I did if you look closely at the photos, hahaha. This year I'm hoping to try the piping tool I have-- we'll see how that goes. If the kids do it, it'll prob. be Great. Also, I'm planning on popping some champagne in the early mornin' again this year too, so who knows.
