Picnic Deviled Eggs W/ Bacon Recipe

Boil the Eggs

Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, cover the pot, remove from heat, and let sit for 12 minutes.

Cool and Peel

After 12 minutes, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool for about 5 minutes. Once cooled, gently peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthwise.

Make the Filling

Remove the yolks from the egg halves and place them in a mixing bowl. Mash the yolks with a fork, then add mayonnaise, yellow mustard, chopped chives, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.

Add Bacon (if using)

If using bacon, add the crumbled bacon to the yolk mixture and stir until evenly combined.

Fill the Eggs

Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg whites. Garnish with additional chives or bacon if desired.

Serve

Chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Enjoy your Picnic Deviled Eggs!
