Ingredients
  

Green Mashed Potatoes

  • 5 Potatoes Large
  • 2 Cloves Garlic
  • 6 tablespoon Butter
  • 1 Cup Milk
  • 2 tablespoon Cream Cheese
  • Pinch Salt
  • Pinch Pepper
  • 1 ½ Cup Parsley Chopped
  • 1 ¼ Cup Chives Chopped
  • 3 tablespoon Tarragon Leaves Chopped

Devilled Eggs

  • 1 Egg Boiled
  • 1 Olive Stuffed With Pemento

Instructions
 

  • Chop your potatoes into chunks and boil them for 10-12 minutes until tender. At the same time, boil an egg for your deviled egg “eyeballs.”
  • In a blender, combine cream cheese (or crème fraîche), milk, chives, tarragon, and parsley.
  • Blitz until smooth and creamy. Set aside a small amount of this herby puree for the deviled eggs.
  • Once the potatoes are boiled, drain the water and mash them until smooth. 
  • Stir in the herby puree, saving a small spoonful for the eggs, and mix until the mash turns a bright green. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Peel the boiled egg and slice it in half. Scoop out the yolk, and mix it with a teaspoon of mayo and the reserved herby puree to turn it green. 
  • Spoon the mixture back into the egg whites to make your deviled eggs. Place an olive slice on top of each for the eyeballs. 
  • Place the green mashed potatoes in a serving bowl and top with the spooky eyeballs.

Notes

  • Use Fresh Herbs for Vibrant Color: Opt for fresh parsley, chives, and tarragon to achieve that bright, natural green color in your mash. The fresher the herbs, the more vibrant the hue!
  • Don’t Over-Boil Potatoes: Keep an eye on the potatoes while boiling to avoid them becoming waterlogged. This ensures a better texture when mashed.
  • Making Monster Deviled Eggs: If you don't have olives with pimento, slice the olive thinly and add a tiny piece of red bell pepper inside to create a blood eye effect.
