- Use natural food coloring like beet juice (pink), turmeric (yellow), red cabbage (blue/purple), or spinach (green).
- Make ahead: You can dye the eggs 24 hours in advance, but for the freshest taste, fill them on the day of serving.
- Change up the flavors: Add bacon bits, avocado, or spicy sriracha for a twist.
