Bacon and Cheddar Deviled Eggs

  I don't know about you but I LOVE the holidays! I mean whats not to love? You get to spend time with family who you might not get to see very often, buy gifts for all the people you love in your life, see all the beautiful Christmas lights and decorations everywhere, and also getting to decorate of course! But my favorite part of the holidays has to be getting to bake and cook all the delicious holiday foods (and lets not forget getting to eat all that yummy food!).

 One easy and super yummy dish I enjoy making is deviled eggs! YUM! This year however I learned a new recipe that I just had to try! Bacon and Cheddar Deviled Eggs. That just sounds amazing right? Well let me tell you they are as amazing as they sound.

So to start of this recipe you'll need:

  • 12 eggs  
  • 1/2 c. mayo
  • 1 tbs. mustard 
  • 2 tbs. shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 pieces of bacon 

First start by placing the eggs in a sauce pan and cover with cold water. Bring the water to a boil and remove it from heat. Next cover and let them sit for about 10 minutes. Then take the eggs and place them into a cold bowl of water to cool.

While your eggs are cooling go ahead and cook your bacon on a skillet till nice and crispy. Place the bacon in a paper towel to gather the excess grease then crumple into bacon bits and set aside.

Take your eggs, peel (*NOTE*  If you roll them on a hard surface before trying to peel them it is a heck of a lot easier to get them to peel. ) and cut them in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks and place them in a small bowl. Combine egg yolks, mayo, mustard, cheese and 3 pieces of bacon (save one to garnish the eggs with). Take your yolk mixture and put it into a zip lock bag. Cut the corner of the bag and pipe it into the egg whites. Garnish with the last of the bacon and a little cheddar cheese.


Hope you enjoy this recipe as much as me!
Happy Holidays!
