No matter how much I've eaten, I always have room for deviled eggs. I love eggs in general but deviled eggs have an extra special place in my heart. They're so perfectly creamy and full of flavor. And the best part is, there are about a million different ways you can get creative with them and make them unique.
Today's variation on Traditional Deviled Eggs is inspired by a spicy party favorite: Jalapeno Poppers. They have the creaminess of the cream cheese, the smokiness of the bacon and a fantastically spicy kick from the jalapeno pepper. You're basically taking simple deviled eggs to the next level.
Take these to your next picnic. Use up leftover Easter Eggs. Add a little spice to brunch. Make these for a game day gathering. Or just eat them on your own, no judgement. 😉
Common questions about Jalapeno Bacon Deviled Eggs:
- How long do deviled eggs keep in the refrigerator? Around 3-4 days
- How long can deviled eggs stay out of the refrigerator? I'd say 2 hours at most. To be safe, keep the plate on ice.
- Are deviled eggs bad for you? While there are many, many worse appetizers, deviled eggs aren't exactly good for you. They're pretty high in fat and cholesterol but everything in moderation.
- Can deviled eggs be made ahead? Yes, they can be made up to two days ahead.
- How do you cook hard boiled eggs? Place the eggs in a pot of cool waters so that they're completely covered. Bring the water to a boil and once it's boiling cover, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 13 minutes before plunging into an ice bath. You can cook them for a shorter amount of time for a less-solid center but for this recipe I like the yolks to be fully cooked through.
- What's the best way to peel a hard boiled egg? I suggest doing so carefully under cold water. I've also heard that using eggs that are slightly older (not rotten, just not brand-spankin' new) will heed and easier-to-peel egg.
- What's the best way to get the egg yolk mixture back into the egg whites? I like to snip the corner off of a sandwich size plastic zipper bag and use that to "pipe" the mixture in. Works like a charm!
