How to Make Bacon And Egg Salad
- Cook bacon until crisp. Remove from pan and crumble. Reserve 2 tablespoons of bacon grease.
- Hard-boil 6 large eggs. Once cool, peel and chop.
- In a large bowl, combine the chopped eggs, 1/2 cup crumbled bacon, 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion, and 1/4 cup chopped celery.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon bacon grease (reserved from step 1), 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, salt and pepper to taste.
- Gently fold the mayonnaise mixture into the egg mixture. Stir in 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley.
- Serve immediately, or chill for up to 24 hours to allow flavors to meld. The bacon will soften slightly upon chilling.
- Serve as a salad (on its own or over greens) or use as a sandwich filling.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
