Prepare Eggs: Start by boiling the eggs. Place them in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10-12 minutes. Once done, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool completely. This step makes them easier to peel.
-
-
Peel and Slice: Peel the cooled eggs and slice them in half lengthwise. Carefully remove the yolks and place them in a separate bowl. Arrange the egg white halves on a serving platter.
-
Make Filling: Mash the egg yolks with a fork until smooth. To the mashed yolks, add the crumbled bacon, diced onion, chopped celery, and sweet pickle. Mix well to combine.
-
Add Flavor: Stir in the prepared mustard and mayonnaise until the mixture is creamy and well blended. If the mixture seems too dry, you can add additional mayonnaise or a splash of cream for extra creaminess.
-
Season: Season the filling with salt and black pepper according to your taste preferences. Mix everything together until evenly seasoned.
-
Fill the Eggs: Using a spoon or a piping bag, fill each egg white half with the prepared yolk mixture. Fill them generously for a delightful bite.
-
Garnish: Top each deviled egg with a slice of green olive and a sprinkle of paprika for a pop of color and flavor.
-
Serve: Your delicious Deviled Eggs are ready to be served! Arrange them on a platter and serve immediately, or refrigerate them until ready to serve. They’re great for parties, gatherings, or as a tasty snack any time of day.
