how long can cooked food be out, such as eggs?
Serving Eggs Safely. 1  Serve cooked eggs and egg-containing foods immediately after cooking. 2  Eggs and egg dishes may be refrigerated for serving later but should be thoroughly reheated to 165Â°F before serving. 3  Use hard-cooked eggs (in the shell or peeled) within 1 week.  Consume egg dishes within 3 to 4 days.
