How long does a boiled egg keep in the fridge? I'm thinking about boiling a bunch on a Sunday to take in the morning during the week...would they keep until Friday?

    Yes, I normally boil a bunch to take one every day for breakfast. They're definitely fine until Friday. They might start to get a little green tinge to the outside of the yolks, but from what I've read, it's perfectly harmless....although, this might just be from boiling them too long.

    Enjoy!

    They're fine for a week or so.
    I typically cook up a dozen and eat them over a few days. but i've kept them as long as 6 and they were still fine.

    I keep mine and eat them for about 5 days.

    I do this almost every week. Boil 6 eggs and eat them during the week. Works great.
