Receta Naturally Dyed Easter Eggs & What To Do With Them Post-Hunt
Amidst the chaos of daily life with an almost-4-year-old and an almost-7-month-old (and a house renovation), Easter has really snuck up on me this year. So there will be no brilliant new recipes or flawless photos before Sunday (sigh...)
But I do want to share a very beautiful technique using plants to decorate your eggs and also point you to some posts about making your own gorgeous, natural dyes instead of those nasty Paas tablets. And, of course, give you some good recipes to put all those hardboiled eggs to use!
We're hoping to try making these this year (though not in time for me to share with you BEFORE Easter) and I will certainly report back on Facebook if we do.
There are also all sorts of great natural dyes out there - from turmeric to red cabbage to carrots to beets to blueberries to coffee and more.
Here are some links to get you started (they all seem to say more or less the same things):
Of course, once your egg hunt is over, you'll have a lot of hardboiled eggs at hand. So here are a few yummy ways to use them.
We're planning to get all the ingredients prepped for deviled eggs on Easter morning so that we can quickly whip up some brunch after we've finished finding them.
Happy Easter to those of you who celebrate it. And happy egg eating to everyone.
