We only have one little girl right now. So we only dyed about 18 eggs. I can only imagine how many some of the bigger families have! If I am running out of recipe ideas, you probably are too!
So I did a little searching online and on Pinterest, and here are two different groups of recipes you might want to try:
These are both my pins on Pinterest. It doesn’t matter whether you have an account, just click on the picture and you will be sent to the article with all of the recipes! Fel free to re-pin them and share with your friends too. And, of course, if you have any awesome recipes for leftover hard boiled eggs, leave a comment and share with the rest of us!

Thank you so much, this is a huge help!
Tracy Cowley
Thank you for the ideas of how to use all these boiled eggs. 🙂
Juli Guthrie
So many other things to do than deviled eggs! Thanks!
Caryn
I like different takes on what to do with hardboiled eggs other than egg salad sandwiches… gotta say, I love to use them in potato salad… but that’s pretty predictable as well I suppose.
April J
Such great ideas! I always threw my eggs out, but definitely will use these tips next Easter!
Becca
Thanks for the ideas!
Emily
My kids like to just peel them, salt them, and eat them as is. I think they learned that from me! I love hard boiled eggs. 😀
Elise
This is amazing!! I didn’t know what to do with mine, so thank you for this!
Jessie
This is awesome! It’s nice to have some more recipes that my family will love!
jeannette
We love to find things to do with our left over eggs, thanks! My kids fab is to peel them and then slice them with the egg slicer and dip them in ranch.
Teresa F
I have 4 dozen (one dozen for each child) so this is great! Looks like we are eating egg sandwiches for the next few days 🙂 Thank you!
Kristen
We generally don’t have a ton leftover since we use a mix of dyed eggs and plastic eggs and my husband is in love with deviled eggs but we do have them in potato salad as well as on regular salads as well!
Sarah
Great ideas! I will definitely have to try some of these!
Sandy Allen
Thank You so much for posting these great ideas for the boiled eggs! I love these ideas and my husband loves deviled eggs. Thanks so much.
Donna Y
Yum! I love hardboiled eggs. Thanks for posting. I always sub most of the mayo for plain yogurt (non-fat or low-fat…Greek yogurt if I find it on sale!) to up the nutrition and lower the calories/fat of my egg salad!
Jennica
Thank you so much! We have so many eggs and I am in desperate need of some new ideas!!!
rachel rodman-kunkler
yum! this looks great.
Natalie
We had a hard boiled egg picnic, we made egg salad sandwiches and a hard boiled egg on the side. Our family ate 8 of our 18 colored eggs we are getting there!!
Meredith Harker
Glad you posted this. I wasn’t sure what to do with our 2 doz colored eggs. Now, I can make dinner with them!
Gretchen B
Thanks for the post. With so many leftover easter eggs it hard to think of things to do with them.
marcia A.
This look delicious and it’s nice to have additional ideas.
Rahel Hewson
Check out Pinterest!! There are several great recipes for Egg Salad Sandwhiches and new ideas for dying eggs next year… etc, using silk ties very cool…
Wendy F.
I love making egg salad out of them. Add pickles or pickle relish, mayo and garlic powder then put on toasted bread. Yum! But you can never have too many deviled eggs. Thank you for posting other recipes.
Angela Nearing
Thanks for the ideas on how to use all our boiled eggs so they won’t go to waste! lol 🙂
Christine
Found this on pinterest- avocado egg salad. We didn’t actually dye any eggs (no kids) but I’m thinking I’ll head home and hard boil some just for this purpose!

I have two kids and they each dyed a dozen so this will help out immensely on using them! Thank you!
Jill
Fantastic! I was just going to look up some different ways for eggs…we still have about 60 left! Remember, they only last for one week after you boil them!
Ashley Waddell
Thanks for the ideas! Im always looking for new recipies.
Jamie
Thanks for the ideas! My kids love to color eggs but I hate wasting them and we get so tired of just eating them plain!
Lois
There are also some really cute ideas on how to spruce up a deviled egg on pinterest. They are super cute too! (And just to think I get an entry into a free drawing just for sharing this great info.)
Nina
Thanks for the ideas. Can’t wait to try some out.
Randi
Such a great idea, Thank You!!!
Kim
If you get sick of eating hard boiled eggs….turn them into deviled eggs and bring them into your office! They’ll disappear in probably an hour with all the vultures 🙂 Another way to get rid of eggs, cut them up and add them to a salad. You’ll forget you’re eating an egg if you have a bunch of other yummy stuff in there.
Rhoda S
We love to use boiled eggs on salad, in tuna fish, and egg salad sandwiches. I could never bring myself to throw them out. LOL
Kristen Grant
Thank you so much I love coloring eggs and never know what to do with the hard boiled eggs afterwards since nobody in my family likes them. These recipes were so helpful!
Joyce
Perfect timing! Was trying to decide this morning what I was going to do with all of our eggs!!!
Randee Scott
We only did 2 dozen, but my daughter and I are the only ones who will eat them. THanks for the variety!

We have a tradition of making creamed egg whites on toast with our eggs. Good ideas

I am not a boiled egg lover. Maybe some of these will convince me to boil eggs.
claudia ellis
we love hard boiled eggs here at my house! I like to add one to the kids school lunches every now and then or even slice them and add them on top of a sandwich (yum) or salad!
Jen
Thanks for the helpful hint of using eggs 🙂
Shannon C
Well, now I am craving eggs! How long can boiled eggs stay out of the fridge before they go bad? We colored two dozen, but I was nervous that they had been out too long. So, I threw them all out. ðŸ™
Tiffany
Oh Thank you! These recipes are great!
Sourkraut
Thanks for this! I always dye eggs even though I’m the only one in the house who eats them. Needless to say, I have many to use up.

As I opened the fridge this morning and saw our Easter eggs sitting there, I thought to myself, “I need to get those used up somehow.” Thank you so much for posting some ideas/recipes and for helping to motivate me to actually get them used up before they go bad. 🙂 LOVE this site!

Thanks for the thoughtful post! If you’re looking for more great recipe ideas for your leftover eggs try allrecipes.com they have many amazing recipes!
Alison
We don’t boil our easter eggs. Just use a food coloring based dye and it is completely safe. We put a big towel on the table to soften the blow for any that get dropped but we didn’t have any accidents this year. Also, just make sure you return them to the fridge quickly. Then we made scrambled eggs and waffles for dinner!
Kristin Hadley
Did you know that you can freeze hard boiled eggs to use for later in salads? But guess what we did with our eggs that had been out in the sun too long? I let my kids have fun chucking them over the fence into the field. They got a kick out of it and we didnt have to get sick on $4 worth of eggs. It was priceless!
Jenny
Ah – a helpful comment? Got that right here. 🙂 So, whenever I make deviled eggs, I always have leftover yellow yolk filling. I put that in a container and the next day for lunch toast a couple pieces of bread and spread that inside. It’s REALLY good. And you can make those deviled eggs out of the hard boiled eggs you made or if you already made some for Easter dinner:
Just mix in to taste: miracle whip or mayo, salt, pepper, and a sweet relish.
Thanks!
Marie
Thanks for the great ideas!
Olena Steinmetz
I love to make pickled eggs. Just put them in a jar with liquid from pickles! My kids love those.
Olena Steinmetz
Another yummy salad:
chopped eggs,
chopped boiled potatoes
chopped boiled carrots
chopped pickles
chopped chicken or ham or turkey or hotdogs
add salt and pepper and mayo as a dressing
Very yummy!
Alyssa Gatrell
Thanks! I needed something new to do with all of the eggs. Those egg salad sandwiches were getting old!
Emily
I like to always have just a handful of hard boiled eggs on hand for a quick snack or to add to a salad year round. For Easter dinner with the family I made sure to volunteer to bring deviled eggs so I could use up all the ones we dyed!
lindsay
how long do hard boiled eggs last if kept well refrigerated?
Angela W.
Yum!!! I love the eggs after Easter. Hard boiled eggs in a simple Cobb salad are so good. They help the summer food to get going 🙂
Colleen
Thanks, we can use all the recipes we can get for eggs!
Monica
Don’t know if these have already been mentioned, but we served avocado deviled eggs for Easter. Recipe found on Pinterest:

And this layered salad looks so yummy! Also found on Pinterest:

These look great! Thanks! I’m not a huge fan of hard boiled eggs but my whole family loves them so it’s nice to find new recipes for them. Thanks.

There was a gorgeous avocado egg salad recipe on Skinnytaste today that I’m going to try next time I buy an avocado:

Thank you for posting this. I will use them for a special picnic.
Jennifer Ricks
Thanks for all the great ideas. I love hard boiled eggs (we didn’t even dye any). But I still boil and eat them this time of year.
Sara
Thank you! I love the eggs, but get too many of them around this time of year!
Katrina Fisher
I love boiled eggs, but don’t have many ideas for what else to do with them. Thank you!
Nina Morgan
Thanks, I had a ton of eggs left

We have been eating them for breakfast and on green salad and in potato salad. We also had a round of deviled eggs too!! Thanks for the recipes.
Rachel
This looks really yummy, thanks!!
Stephanie Hirsch
Mmmm….the shrimp cobb salad looks divine!
Sarah
This looks so yummy! I cannot wait to try it. Thank you for posting.
Vickie Madewell
I look forward to the potato salad made with all the hard boiled eggs from Easter. The Cobb salad looked delicious! Thanks for the post
Deanna Leimbach
I shocks me to find out that people have left over hard boiled eggs, I can never get enough! But, I guess not everyone loves them as much as me. 🙂 Egg salad is one of my favorites; I find one egg and a TBSP of mayo is the right amount for one sandwich. I add a little bit of a garlic dill seasoning that I have but you could use any combination of your favorite seasonings (garlic pepper, lemon pepper, salt & pepper, seasoned salt, pickle relish, etc). Add just a dash of your seasoning and taste, it’s easier to add more than have too much seasoning. 🙂 I love to serve on toasted whole grain bread with lettuce and tomato slices.
Jen
Love hard boiled eggs. Thanks for the wonderful ideas.
Krystal
Good ideas. Thanks!
Cristal
What great ideas!
Carolyn Cox
If you are looking for a great site for good recipes too, allrecipes.com is excellent! Thanks for the tips!
Carmel Chen
Thanks for sharing these ideas. It was funny to read that you “only” boiled 18 eggs for your one child, because we only boiled 12 eggs for my 4 children to share (3 eggs each). Lol.
Kristal
I love egg salad sandwiches. I just smash the eggs, add miracle whip AND (a must) chopped dill pickles. The BEST!!!!
Nicole
I have a hard time eating boiled eggs, for some reason, but I still made deviled eggs for my family trying a new recipe I found online. I was shocked when I tried it and enjoyed it! So, for me, it’s all about the recipe! This was a basic recipe, with the addition of a tsp of sugar and a tsp of white vinegar to the yolk mixture…. I was very impressed with it! We ate a dozen eggs in just a few minutes this way! 🙂
Carly B
Had this sandwich today for lunch, so yummy! thanks for the help using those eggs!
Janet
This is a great idea for all my left over eggs!
trieste
Thanks for posting this…I was wondering what to do with all of our hard boiled eggs before they go bad and I don’t like deviled eggs so I needed something different!
