Roman Catholic AnswerI have been attending Mass for over forty years, and, except for a tabernacle in a really modern Church that looked like a huge gold Easter egg, I have never seen an egg having anything to do with the Eucharist, outside of a children's Easter egg hunt.

One of the foods on the Seder plate is the Beitzah - a hard-boiled egg, symbolizing the korban chagigah (festival sacrifice) that was offered in the Temple in Jerusalem and roasted and eaten as part of the meal on Seder night. Although both the Pesach sacrifice and the chagigah were meat-offerings, the chagigah is commemorated by an egg, a symbol of mourning.See also:

There is traditionally a roast egg on the Seder plate that serves as a reminder of the festival burnt offering -- as distinct from the Passover offering, signified by a shankbone that is also a traditional element on the Seder plate.
