Deviled eggs are often a staple for holidays, birthday parties, and family dinners across the country. This recipe is like the traditional deviled egg recipe with a little twist to make it visually fun for Easter!
Eggs are a wonderful source of protein, low in carbohydrates, and delicious! I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I did!
Ingredients
- 6 hard-boiled eggs peeled
- 3 tablespoons light mayonnaise

- teaspoon kosher salt
For decorating:
- Chives cut into ¾-inch pieces
- Black olives cut into very small pieces
- Red bell pepper cut into very small pieces
- Thin carrot slices cut into "ears"
- Curly parsley optional
Instructions
- Cut the peeled hard-boiled eggs in half lengthwise. Carefully remove the yolks, taking care not to tear the egg whites. Place the yolks in a bowl.

- Spoon the egg yolk mixture into the egg whites.
- Decorate the deviled eggs, using the black olives for eyes, red bell pepper for nose, chives for whiskers and carrots for ears.
- Serve on a plate, surrounded by curly parsley (for grass).
