Notes

  • Recipe Notes

    Store leftover deviled eggs covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
    For best results, prepare and chill the hard-boiled eggs before assembling the deviled eggs. Use a sharp knife to cut the eggs cleanly without tearing the whites.
    Divide the yolk filling evenly among the egg whites. Taste the filling before adding additional seasoning.
    Cook the bacon in advance or use leftover cooked bacon. Bacon bits can also be used for a quicker option.

    Variations

    Replace the pickle relish with a small amount of apple cider vinegar or lemon juice for a different flavor.
    For extra seasoning, try smoked paprika or a small amount of onion powder.
    Shredded cheddar cheese can be mixed into the yolk filling.
    Garnish with hot sauce or fresh parsley instead of, or in addition to, the bacon and chives.
    Turkey bacon can be used in place of regular bacon.
