Instructions
Prepare hard-boiled eggs. See my method at www.bakingnaturally.org
Slice eggs lengthwise and pop the yolk out into a medium mixing bowl. Place the shells in a tray or carrier.
Cook bacon until very crisp. I usually fry in a skillet and store until I'm ready to use some. When I need it, I give it a minute in the microwave.
Chop the bacon very fine. Add to medium mixing bowl with the yolks along with all other ingredients except salt and pepper.
Mix well (I use a hand mixer). Give it a taste and see if you need any salt or pepper. Bacon, mayo and cheese all have quite a lot of salt, so you may not need any at all. Remix if necessary.
Fill the shells with the yolk mixture. I use a piping bag and it goes very quickly.
Refrigerate for an hour to let the yolk mixture set up a bit.
