How to make Cheddar Bacon Egg Salad:
Step one: Start by boiling your eggs until they are cooked through. To do this bring water to a boil with eggs in a large pot then reduce heat and allow to simmer for 12 minutes.
Step two: Add whipped cream cheese, mayonnaise, mustard, garlic powder, and celery seed in a mixing bowl and whisk together until smooth and creamy.
Step three: Peel boiled eggs and add them to your mixing bowl with your base. Use a fork to mash and mix together.
Step four: Add green onions, cooked and crumbled bacon, and shredded cheese and mix well.
Cooking Tip:
When preparing your bacon try baking it the oven. It’s so easy to pop in the oven and makes clean up faster. If you want to know how I make my bacon check out my recipe for oven baked bacon.
