Total Time:

Yield:
24 deviled egg halves
Servings:

Ingredients

  • 12 eggs
  • green egg dye
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 small stalks celery from the heart, minced
  • 2 drops green food coloring, or as desired
  • 24 small fresh parsley leaves

Directions

Step 1
Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, remove from heat, and let eggs stand in the hot water for 15 minutes. Remove from hot water and chill at least 30 minutes in a bowl of cold water or in the refrigerator, until eggs are cold.

Step 2
Prepare egg dye according to package directions in a large metal or glass bowl.

Step 3
Gently crack eggs but do not remove shells so that the egg dye can reach the egg whites.

Step 4
Place the cracked hard-cooked eggs into the dye, working in batches if necessary, until dye seeps through the cracks and colors the eggs slightly, about 5 minutes per batch.

Step 5
Rinse eggs and peel to expose the green marbled color; slice eggs in half lengthwise.

Step 6
Scoop egg yolks into a bowl and mash with a fork and mix in the mayonnaise and celery; stir green food coloring into the yolk mixture.

Step 7
Spoon the yolk mixture into the egg halves; top each egg half with a parsley leaf.
