Simple ingredients combine to create this fun twist on classic deviled eggs. These Bacon Ranch Deviled Eggs will make a tasty addition to your appetizer menu any time of year.
Sometimes you just need to mix things up a little. Don’t you think? Once I tried the Bacon Horseradish Deviled Eggs I found over at my friend Amy’s site, I’ve been a changed woman.
There are endless ways to stuff an egg and I just can’t get myself to make the old classic deviled eggs we all grew up on anymore. No doubt, they are delicious, but bacon you guys. Bacon!
As I sat dreaming about deviled eggs one day last week (weird, I know) I realized that where there is bacon, there should be Ranch and that was the moment these Bacon Ranch Deviled Eggs were born.
The filling is a super simple mixture of egg yolks smashed together with some bottled Ranch dressing, a touch of mayonnaise, a little yellow mustard, a pinch of salt, and some freshly ground black pepper. I topped them with crisp, crumbled bacon and chopped fresh chives and voila!
A delicious, flavorful little bite for your Easter menu.
If you want to kick things up a little you try using Jalapeno Ranch or add a pinch of cayenne pepper.

Bacon Ranch Deviled Eggs
Ingredients
- 6 hard-boiled eggs, peeled
- ¼ cup bottled Ranch salad dressing, for a kick use Jalapeno Ranch

- a pinch of salt
- freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- a pinch of cayenne pepper, optional

Instructions
- Cut eggs in half, lengthwise, and scoop yolks into a small mixing bowl. Add Ranch dressing, mayonnaise, mustard, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using).

A very good alternative to classic deviled eggs. The chives (I used green onions), bacon and ranch makes a good flavor combination. I also liked it better with cayenne sprinkled on top.
Mine came out too watery and with very little flavor or zip. Hubby didn’t like them, either. Won’t be making them again.
These look and sound incredibly delicious, Valerie! Thank you so much about the Bacon Horseradish Deviled Eggs… you made my day! 🙂
Your eggs will be on my Easter table. Thanks!
