Cheddar Bacon Egg Salad Recipes

EGG SALAD AND BACON SANDWICH

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. Add eggs and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Serve on lettuce-lined croissants.

BACON CHEDDAR DEVILED EGGS

Steps:

• Place eggs in a saucepan, and cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil and immediately remove from heat. Cover, and let eggs stand in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from hot water, and cool. To cool more quickly, rinse eggs under cold running water.
• Meanwhile, place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium-high heat until evenly brown. Alternatively, wrap bacon in paper towels and cook in the microwave for about 1 minute per slice. Crumble and set aside.
• Peel the hard-cooked eggs, and cut in half lengthwise. Remove yolks to a small bowl. Mash egg yolks with mayonnaise, crumbled bacon and cheese. Stir in mustard. Fill egg white halves with the yolk mixture and refrigerate until serving.

BACON, EGG AND CHEESE EGG SALAD

Steps:

• Place eggs in single layer in 2-quart saucepan. Cover with cold water at least 1-inch above eggs. Cover saucepan; heat to boiling.
• Immediately remove from heat; let stand covered 15 minutes (12 minutes for medium and 18 minutes for extra-large).
• Drain. Immediately place eggs in cold water with ice cubes or run cold water over eggs until completely cooled.
• To peel, gently tap egg on countertop until entire shell is finely crackled. Roll gently between hands to loosen shell. Starting at large end, peel egg under cold running water to help remove shell.
• Place eggs in medium bowl. Mash eggs with potato masher until evenly mashed. Stir in cheese, mayonnaise, paprika, salt and pepper. Stir in bacon.
• Spread egg mixture on each of 4 slices bread.(I like 12-grain). Top with remaining bread.

CHEDDAR, BACON, AND EGG CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Mix croutons, Cheddar cheese, and bacon together in a bowl; transfer to an 11x7-inch baking dish.
• Beat eggs, mustard, onion powder, and black pepper together in a bowl; pour over croutons mixture. Cover dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Remove plastic wrap from dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean, about 45 minutes. Let casserole stand for 5 minutes before serving.

CHEDDAR AND BACON PINWHEELS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until crispy, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate to drain and allow to cool slightly, then finely chop. Set aside.
• In a small bowl, stir together the cream cheese and scallions. Season with salt and pepper.
• Unfold the pastry sheets on a lightly floured work surface. Lightly roll each piece of pastry into a 10-inch square. Spread the cream cheese mixture over the entire surface of each piece of pastry, leaving a slight border around the edges. Sprinkle the Cheddar and bacon in an even layer over the top of the cream cheese mixture. Tightly roll each pastry sheet into a log (jelly roll style), then pinch the seam closed and place seam-side down on the work surface.
• Using a sharp knife, cut both logs crosswise into 12 pinwheels each, approximately 1 inch thick. Transfer 12 pinwheels to each prepared baking sheet, spiral-side up. In a small bowl, whisk the egg and 1 tablespoon water until combined to make an egg wash. Brush the tops and sides of the pinwheels with the egg wash.
• Bake the pinwheels until puffed and golden, 25 to 30 minutes. Serve warm.
