How to make Red White and Blue Deviled Eggs
deviled eggs are decked out in fun color, great for any celebrating. Patriotic, red, white, and blue are fun for Memorial day and July4th, use other colors for other holiday celebrating.
Ingredients
- 1 dozen hard-boiled eggs
- 1/4 cup nonfat plain yogurt or desired amount
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise I prefer Hellman's/ Best Foods
- 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
- salt & pepper
Instructions
- Cut eggs in half and take out yolks and place them in a medium bowl.
- Use a pastry cutter or fork to break up yolk until it's super fine.
- Add yogurt, mayo, mustard, s&p, and whip up with a spatula until smooth and creamy.
- Place mixture into a piping bag fitted with a 2D tip.
- Mix 1 cup hot water and 1 teaspoon Americolor food coloring and 1 tablespoon vinegar. The vinegar helps the color stay bright, I tried it both ways and the eggs with vinegar have a brighter color.
- Place egg whites into the colored water and let sit until the desired color is achieved about 1-2 minutes.
- Take out egg whites and place on a paper towel to allow the excess color to drip off.
- Then arrange eggs on a platter.
- Pipe the egg yolk mixture into the egg white halves.
Notes
I prefer Americolor Food Coloring, the colors are rich and vibrant and there is no taste. I used super-red (red-red is another option) and I used Navy Blue.
