BLT Deviled Eggs


Deviled eggs. They are like little cups of goodness surrounded by deliciousness. Am I right? Do we have deviled egg eaters out there? Or is that just dating me?  Every family function we have includes deviled eggs.  They're a staple - kind of like milk and oxygen.

My son loves deviled eggs.  Which makes me very happy.  I love it when he says "Mom, can I have some eggs with my dinner?"  Seriously!  Do kids do that???  My daughter always asks if she can have ice cream with dinner.  Huh.  But I don't like it so much when he asks me 5 minutes before dinner is served and I don't have any hard boiled eggs in the fridge.  Normally I do, but there are times when I fail.  Then I discovered these.


Egglands Best Hard Cooked Peeled Eggs.  They are already hard boiled and peeled and so darn easy.  My kids saw the bag and immediately tore into it and started eating the eggs.  (Proud Mom moment.)  Now when my son says "can I have eggs for dinner" at the last minute, I can say "of course".

I wanted to spruce up our deviled eggs this time so I made them a little differently.  I mean, how could I resist?  They had bacon in them for heaven's sake!

* 8 hard cooked eggs
* 1/3 cup mayo
* 2 Tbsp. ranch dressing
* 3 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
* 4 cherry tomatoes, chopped
* 2 Tbsp. shredded lettuce

Cut eggs lengthwise in half.  Remove yolks; place in medium bowl.  Mash with a fork.

Add may and dressing; mix well.  Stir in bacon and tomatoes.


Fill egg whites with yolk mixture; top with lettuce.

Don't they just look delicious???


Enjoy!

I hear ya, Erin:) I LOVE deviled eggs, and they have been at every family gathering as long as I can recall. It's all I can do to keep from eating the whole platter as I prepare them:)
I am definitely going to look for these hard boiled eggs. For some reason I seem to have had a hard time peeling mine for the last few months, so these would be great to have on hand.
Your recipe sounds DELICIOUS!

Oh my! i have never seen these but I so have to find them. I abhor boiling and peeling eggs. 100 people have given my 100 different ways to boil eggs but I can never seem to get the peelings off correctly. The fact that I have no patience probably has something to do with it. I was just thinking that I wanted to make devilled eggs for a family BBQ next month and these sound perfect!! THanks!

All family functions had deviled eggs when I was growing up. My kids don't particularly like them. They like your daughter would prefer ice cream. lol This is a fabulous way to eat my all time favorite sandwhich, BLT! lol
