We love to chop up leftover hard-cooked eggs for potato salads, spinach salads, and pasta salads. And, of course, you can’t go wrong with apr?s Easter egg salads and deviled eggs. But when the same ol’ starts feeling a little same-ol’y, here are some out-of-the-ordinary ideas for enjoying hard-boiled eggs. And, of course, they’re terrific recipes for using up leftover Easter eggs.

If you really went overboard with the Easter eggs this year, and you've made the eggy salads, sides, and main dishes with your leftover ovoids, but still have more… consider the future. Preserve your eggs for later in this spicy vinegar pickle. This recipe calls for a dozen hard-cooked eggs. They're great for snacking or for slicing onto salads.
