Ingredients

  • 12 large eggs boiled and peeled
  • 4 slices bacon cooked and crumbled
  • 2 jalapenos one seeded and diced, one thinly sliced
  • ½ teaspoon garlic minced
  • cup mayonnaise
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ¼ cup shredded cheese (ex. colby jack, pepper jack, cheddar, etc.)

Instructions

To Hard-Boil the Eggs

  • Place the eggs in a pan and cover with water. Set over medium heat and when water begins to boil, set a timer for 11½ minutes. While the eggs are boiling, place a full glass of ice cubes in a large bowl of water and cover it with cold water.
  • When the eggs have finished boiling, remove them from the heat and drain the water. Immediately place the eggs in the ice water. Cool for 30 minutes or until eggs are completely cooled. Peel and serve.

For the Deviled Eggs

  • Cut the eggs in half and scoop the yolks into a mixing bowl. Place the whites on a large serving platter.
    12 large eggs
  • Add most of the bacon (reserve a little for the tops), the diced jalapeno, garlic, mayonnaise, mustard, paprika and cheese. Stir well to combine.
    4 slices bacon, 2 jalapenos, ½ teaspoon garlic, ⅓ cup mayonnaise, 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, ¼ cup shredded cheese
  • Fill the center of each egg, using the entire mixture.
  • Top each egg with a slice of jalapeno and a bit of crumbled bacon.
  • Store in the refrigerator in an air tight container until ready to serve.

Notes

Storage: Store jalapeno popper deviled eggs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
