Deviled eggs can be made in pastels for Easter, green for St. Patrick's Day, or even red, white, and blue for 4th of July. If you're not following any holiday color schemes, there are also Chinese tea leaf eggs and other uniquely decorated eggs that can add a pop of color to your dinner plate. Find out how to creatively color eggs with one of our seven easy recipes. Bonus: they're all edible.
