🌟 Introduction

Deviled eggs have been around forever — but these aren’t your grandma’s plain yolk-and-mayo version. This recipe turns them into loaded bites of heaven with smoky bacon, sharp cheddar, and fresh chives. They’re basically a cross between deviled eggs and loaded potato skins — minus the carbs.

🔪 Ingredient Notes & Substitutions

  • Mayonnaise & Sour Cream: Creates the ultra-creamy filling. For lighter, try Greek yogurt.

  • Dijon Mustard: Adds tang; swap with yellow mustard if you prefer classic.

  • Bacon: Turkey bacon works too. For vegetarian, skip it and add smoked paprika.

  • Cheddar Cheese: Sharp cheddar balances the creaminess — try pepper jack for heat!

  • Chives/Scallions: Brighten the flavor; dill also works well.
