Here’s a Quick Video Tutorial!
Perfect Presentation Platters
Deviled Egg Platter: I used this platter from Target for this recipe! Pottery Barn also has this cute option with bunnies.
Easter Serving Dishes:Ā These paperĀ bunny platesĀ or these melanineĀ bunny platesĀ are adorable, as well as thisĀ Easter Egg Stoneware platterĀ (all from Target.) If youāre looking for a wooden bunny-shaped serving board, I love thisĀ wooden bunny serving platterĀ from TJ Maxx orĀ thisĀ cute option from Target.
Tip: For extra festive decorations around the serving platter, I love winding twinkle lights or a garland like this carrot garland or this Easter Egg garland for some added character.
White Platters: If youād prefer a marble look, this white marble pastry board from World Market is beautiful. For a less expensive option, this faux white marble tray from Walmart is also a great choice!
Kitchen Links:Ā I get asked all the time about the products in the background of my kitchen. Much of it is from MacKenzie-Childs, which I have slowly grown a collection of over the years! My favorites are thisĀ checkered chopping boardĀ that I used for this recipe, my black and whiteĀ checkered teapot, and the gray and white checkeredĀ utensil holder. I also have this enamel canister that you can find inĀ small,Ā medium, orĀ large.
Can I Make This Ahead of Time?
Yes! You can prep them 1-2 days in advance and keep refrigerated.
Storing Leftover JalapeƱo Popper Deviled Eggs
Store any leftovers in a Tupperware container or cover with Saran Wrap and refrigerate. These should last about 3 days in the refrigerator (if they don’t get eaten before then!) š
Enjoy!
I hope these JalapeƱo Popper Deviled Eggs spiced up your day! Thanks for being here and I hope you have a fantastic week!
