What you need:

  • Food coloring
  • 9 Tablespoons Mayonnaise
  • 1 Tablespoon yellow mustard
  • 2 Tablespoon Bleu cheese salad dressing
  • 2 Tablespoon cream cheese

  • 2 teaspoons chopped parsley
  • 4 Tablespoons chopped smoked salmon (lox)
  • 4 Tablespoon chopped, crisp cooked bacon  (keep one full, crisp slice for garnish)

How to Do it:

First, dye the eggs.  To do this you need to crack the shells all around the egg.

Put food coloring on the shell so that it goes in the cracks – rubbing it gently.  Let dry for a couple of minutes and then rinse.  Do this will all 12 eggs and let them dry.

After they are dried, carefully remove the shells.  You can leave them out in a bowl just to eat as hard-boiled eggs,

or make them into deviled eggs!

Slice them in half lengthwise and gently scoop out the yolks.  Set the whites on a serving dish and put all the yolks in a bowl.

To the yolks, add 7 tablespoons of mayonnaise and the yellow mustard.  Add a bit of pepper to taste.  Separate the mixture evenly into three bowls.

Onion and Parsley Eggs

In one of the bowls, mix in the remaining two tablespoons of mayonnaise,  2 Tablespoons of the green onion and the parsley.  Mix well and scoop the mixture evenly into 8 egg halves.  Top with a slice of green olive.
