    Tips for Boiling Eggs

    • Older eggs peel easier than fresh eggs.
    • Boil eggs over medium-high heat.
    • After you drain the eggs from the boiling water, immediately place them in an ice bath. The ice cold water cools them down quickly and makes them easier to peel.

    How to Make Bacon Cheddar Ranch Deviled Eggs

    To prepare the egg filling:

    1. Mince the bacon and set aside. 
    2. Peel and cut the hard-boiled eggs in half lengthwise. Carefully remove the yolks from the white part of the eggs. Place the yolks in a mixing bowl and reserve the empty whites for later.

    1. Add the ranch dressing, dijon mustard, minced shallots, salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the egg yolks.
    2. Use the back of a fork to break up the egg yolks. Stir well. Taste and add a little more salt if needed.

    To fill the eggs:

    1. Lay the hollowed-out egg white halves on a tray. Spoon about two teaspoons of the egg yolk filling into each. For easier cleanup and to make your eggs look extra pretty, try using a disposable piping bag with a star tip. 
    2. Garnish the top of the deviled eggs with bacon bits and a dusting of smoked paprika.

    What to Serve With These Hard-Boiled Eggs 

    Bacon cheddar ranch deviled eggs are great snacks for any casual get-together. They go wonderfully well with other finger foods such as chicken wings, crudites and dips, and cheese platters. 

    How to Store Them 

    Keep any extra prepared bacon deviled eggs in the fridge covered in plastic wrap or in an airtight container. You may want to try storing the filling and the hollowed-out egg whites in separate airtight containers to prevent them from drying out. 

    How Long Do Deviled Eggs With Bacon Last?

    Once you fill the eggs with the yolk mixture, the clock starts ticking. It's best to serve prepared Bacon Ranch Deviled Eggs immediately, but you can make them ahead of time and keep them in the fridge for a few hours. 

    Dispose of any bacon deviled eggs that have been out at room temperature for more than an hour, but if you have any unserved eggs, you can put them in the fridge and eat them within a day or two.
