Egg and Bacon Spread

5 Comments

Have an excess of hard boiled eggs? Tired of deviled eggs? Just want a retro appetizer that has bacon?

This recipe from Miss Rita Burnley and contributed to Atlanta Cooks for Company should do the trick. The recipe calls for quite a bit of mayo and salt. I would suggest doing what I do and adding it slowly to taste. You may also want to add some nice shredded cheddar (or processed cheese, depending on the retro mood you are in)

Egg and Bacon Spread

16 hard-cooked eggs, minced
12 slices crisp bacon, crumbled
4 teaspoons horseradish
4 teaspoons onion, minced
4 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 cup mayonnaise
4 teaspoons salt

Combine all ingredients and chill until serving time. Serve with a choice of crackers, etc.

    This sounds really yummy! Although you are so right on the amount of salt and mayo. I would think the bacon would provide most of the salt needed.

    Reminds me of a retro breakfast recipe I have: BLT Salad.
