If you have smoked paprika, use it for this recipe. It gives it a nice little smoky flavor. You can also use it in macaroni and potato salad too. Also, you’ll use ground mustard for this recipe. I use ground mustard for my oh so delicious meatloaf.
Bacon Blue Cheese Deviled Eggs
I suggest making these eggs and serving them the same day because the blue cheese flavor tends to fade in subsequent days. This recipe is very easy to make and not very time consuming. They’re great to take to potlucks and are perfect for brunch.
It’s a great way to use up hard boiled eggs from Easter. Use your favorite mayonnaise. I use Hellmann’s Light because I like to save calories where I can.
What is the best way to mash yolks for deviled eggs?
Use a fork to mash cooked egg yolks. You may also use a pastry knife if you have one.
What is the best way to fill deviled eggs?
Fill a quart sized plastic bag with the egg filling and cut the tip. It’ll act as a pastry bag to fill the eggs.
Alternatively, you can use a tablespoon from your kitchen drawer to fill the eggs although it can be a bit messy. If using this method, you may want to refrigerate the filling for 30 minutes so it’s more thick.
These easy-to-make Bacon Blue Cheese Deviled Eggs are a tasty alternative to regular deviled eggs and perfect for lovers of blue cheese. They’re a great low-carb appetizer.
