Bacon Deviled Egss

I have always believed that bacon makes everything taste better and this is no exception. How have I lived 40+ years and never experienced / thought of this?!? Let me tell you, this is amazing. You will be a bacon god if you serve this at your next picnic, potluck, or get-together. You will be loved. And you will be the most popular person there!

Ingredients:

12 eggs

1/2 cup mayonnaise

5-6 cooked bacon slices, 3 finely chopped and the rest roughly chopped for garnish

1 Tbs chopped parsley

1/8 tsp salt

1/8 tsp dried mustard

Pinch ground black pepper

Preparation:

Place eggs in a single layer of saucepan. Add approximately 3" water. Bring to a rolling boil, cover, remove for heat, and let stand 10 minutes. Drain. Submerge eggs in cold water. When eggs have cooled, peel under cold running water.

Slice eggs in half lengthwise, carefully remove the yolks, keep egg white halves intact.

Place yolks in a bowl and mash with mayonnaise until creamy. Stir in finely chopped bacon, parsley, salt, mustard, and black pepper.

Spoon yolk mixture into egg white halves (use a teaspoon or a small scoop). Garnish with bacon. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Serves 12
