Looking for a different deviled egg recipe that will impress your guests? This recipe combines two of the South’s staples into something spectacular.
Why I haven’t thought of making these earlier in life I will never know. These are amazing!
I came across the idea while browsing through different recipes. So I threw together what I thought would taste good, and added BACON. Because when you’re taking chances, everything’s better with bacon, right?
