Instructions:

*Steps 1-4 are optional*

 Begin by combining hot water, 10-12 drops of green food coloring, and vinegar in a bowl.

Gently roll each hardboiled egg on a countertop while applying light pressure to crack them.

Soak the cracked eggs in the colored water for 3 to 4 minutes.

Afterward, take the eggs out of the colored water and let them dry on a paper towel or in an egg carton.

Once dried, peel the eggs and slice them in half.

Scoop out the yolks from the egg whites and discard the yolks.

Using a toothpick, create red zigzag lines on the inner sides of the egg halves to mimic a bloodshot look.

Carefully slice the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl.

Season with a touch of salt and pepper, and mix until smooth.

If desired, add a few dashes of hot sauce for extra heat (optional).

Use a spoon to fill each egg with the avocado mixture.

Top with black olives to finish.
