Deviled Eggs with Bacon and Vidalia Onion
- 2 slices Bacon, The Thinner Cut The Better
- 6 whole Large Eggs, Hard Boiled
- 2 Tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons Vidalia Onion Vinaigrette Salad Dressing
- 1 dash Salt And Pepper, to taste
- 1 dash Paprika
- 1.
- Fry up two slices of bacon until they are crispy, and set them on a paper towel to drain and cool down.
- You want to make sure that theres not a lot of surface grease on the bacon, and also that its really crispy.
- Soggy bacon in this recipe will ruin your life.
- Trust me on this one.
- 2.
- While the bacon is frying, heat a fairly deep pot of water for the eggs.
- Once it comes to a boil, add the eggs, cover the pot, and set the timer for seventeen minutes.
- I like my eggs really hard boiled and firm textured.
- Feel free to boil them to your preference, however.
- 3.
- When the eggs are done, put them in an ice water bath to cool down for about 10-15 minutes.
- You want to make sure theyre good and cold before doing the cutting/mixing portion of the deviled eggs.
- 4.
- While the eggs are cooling, chop/crush your bacon into small pieces.
- You dont want any ginormous chunks of bacon, but you dont want bacon powder either.
- Shoot for somewhere in the middle.
- 5.
- After the eggs have cooled down, peel them, rinse/pat dry, and slice in half lengthwise.
- Gently scoop the hard boiled yolks (yellow part) into a small bowl.
- Set the egg white halves on a plate or in a deviled egg tray.
- 6.
- Mash yolks with a fork until finely crumbled.
- Add mayonnaise and stir to combine and smooth out the mixture.
- If its a bit lumpy, thats okay.
- At least, I dont mind it.
- 7.
- Next, add in the vidalia onion vinaigrette, to taste.
- Start out with a little, and add more if needed.
- Its really good, and has a delicious onion and mustard flavor that adds a lot of depth to these eggs.
- You can find this dressing at the grocery store.
- I used Virginia Brand.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Add bacon crumbles.
- Stir mixture together to combine all ingredients.
- 8.
- With a spoon, carefully fill each of the egg halves with the yolk mixture.
- Sprinkle with paprika for garnish.
- Enjoy!
