Step-by-step Easter egg recipes

In our family, eggs are on the menu almost every day. However, after Easter, about a dozen dyes often remain, which you do not want to keep in the refrigerator for a long time. And then you have to turn on your imagination and create something new. Given the fact that boiled eggs go well with a wide range of products, there are no particular problems here. The first thing I do is make a puff fish salad, which has become one of my husband's favorite foods, or a minced meat roll with egg filling. Well, the remaining eggs make wonderful snacks that can be put on both a regular table and a festive one.
