Tips

Get creative and use ingredients you already have on hand. Make the basic filling and let the kids fill a small plastic bag with a small amount of the egg filling and let them add their favorite extra fillings (such as bacon, diced ham, cheddar cheese, etc.). Cut off the tip of the bag and let the kids pipe their mixture into the whites. Recipe can be doubled. For perfect hard-boiled eggs, click here for more information.
