So I used to ideas I saw on the web to make one idea come to life. Chick + colorful deviled eggs = colorful chick deviled egg.
- Dozen eggs
- food coloring
- 5 tbsp. of vinegar
- 1/2 mayo
- 1/2 tsp. black poppy seeds for the eyes
- 1/2 tsp. chopped carrots for the beaks
- pot
- cups
- mixing bowl
- potato masher
- strainer
In a pot fill about half way with water and let boil. Carefully add eggs and let boil for about 15 minutes. Take one egg out carefully if your not positive they are done and crack open to make sure its a hard boiled egg. If it is pour the rest in a strainer and pour cool water over them to cool them down. Once they are cool crack and carefully pull away the shells. Then cut down the side and scoop out the middle with a spoon. Place yolk and 1/2 cup of mayo in a bowl and mash together. Set this aside and lets get started with the dye for our eggs. Place out your five cups and fill them with 1 cup of water and 1 tbsp. of vinegar. Now you can be creative and make up your own colors in each with a few drops of food coloring. :) Place your egg halves in the dye and wait til desired color is achieved. About 4 eggs can fit in a cup, but this also depends on the cup. Pull them out and place them on a towel to dry before filling with mayo mixture. You can either pipe it in or spoon it in. Finally you can add poppy seed eyes and carrot beaks. How cute are these? :)
