Loaded Deviled Eggs

Deviled eggs are a classic dish perfect for holidays and gatherings. The recipe includes hard-boiled eggs, mayo, mustard, vinegar, salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of paprika. They’re a healthy and easy-to-make snack. The name “deviled” dates back to the 18th century and refers to spicy or zesty foods, like eggs with mustard and spices. So, no need to worry, deviled eggs are not sinister!

INGREDIENTS

Large eggs (hard-boiled, cooled & halved)
6 slices bacon (cooked crisp & crumbled)
2 teaspoons fresh chives
2 teaspoons white vinegar
2 tablespoons finely shredded mild cheddar cheese
1⁄4 cup sour cream or 1⁄4 cup buttermilk
paprika

DIRECTIONS
Transfer egg yolks from halves to mixing bowl & combine with remaining ingredients.
Add the sour cream or buttermilk last & use more as needed to reach desired smoothness.
Spoon yolk mixture into halves. The bulk will have grown substantially, so pile it high & “dust” with a sprinkle of paprika.
