The 4th of July is almost here, and many of us are planning backyard bbqs, picnics, & cookouts.  I don’t know about you, but for my family – deviled eggs are a staple for those.

What’s better than deviled eggs to go along with your cookout? Red, white, & blue deviled eggs – that’s what!

And they’re just as easy to make as any other kind of deviled eggs you make. I used my favorite recipe for the eggs themselves (which I refer to as the best ever) – and you can use my recipe, or you can use any other recipe you like.

A lot of y’all like my dishes, so here’s the link to the red, white, & blue platter pictured if you’re interested.

Obviously, the first step is to hard boil as many eggs as you want to make. I use a dandy little egg cooker for making my hard boiled eggs (omelets, soft boiled, etc too), it’s one of those appliances I never thought I needed until I actually bought one – now I don’t ever want to be without it.

Peel your eggs as you normally would. Once they’re peeled, pour some water in two separate bowls. Add red food coloring to one & blue to the other, enough to get the color you want, and whisk the water until combined.

Place the half of the peeled eggs in the red water & the other half in the blue water. Put the bowls in the fridge for 2 hours for the color to set in.

Place a layer of paper towels on the counter (or a plate) to absorb any color drippings. Using tongs, remove the eggs from the colored water & dry thoroughly.

Scoop or pipe the filling into the eggs. Sprinkle with paprika. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
