Place the eggs into a large saucepan. Cover with cold water and bring to a boil. Let the eggs boil for 3 minutes, then turn off the heat. Cover the pot and let the eggs sit in the hot water for at least 20 minutes. Drain and transfer the eggs to cold water to cool. Peel the cooled eggs.

Cut the hard-boiled eggs in half lengthwise and remove the yolks. Mash the yolks in a bowl with the creamy salad dressing, dry mustard, salt, pepper, and hot sauce until smooth.

Place red, blue, and green food coloring into three separate bowls. Add about 1 cup of water to each bowl. Steep 8 egg white halves in each bowl, tinting the egg whites pink, light blue, and green. If the color is too pale, add more food coloring to the bowls. Drain the colored egg whites on paper towels.

Pipe or spoon the egg yolk filling into the colored egg white halves. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
