I love a good egg salad recipe and am always looking for ways to make traditional egg salad a bit healthier and more flavorful. Any breakfast lover will tell you that no flavors go better together than eggs and bacon! Crumbled bacon in egg salad is just heavenly. I like to save a little extra bacon to garnish on top, along with a sprinkling of paprika. Great for a quick and healthy lunch and it’s Paleo-diet friendly!

Delicious! I’ve been craving egg salad and it only gets better with bacon!!
Agreed!! Bacon rocks!
Made this last night! Huge huge hit. Am pinning on pinterest now. My husband said ‘put it in the five yums folder’ — and I said I only do 3 yums! He said – make a new folder for this one!!! Very very good, and so easy. Thank you!!!
Donna, that’s awesome! Wow, I feel honored to make the 5 yums folder!!! Thank you so much for the feedback and the huge compliment! xo~
just made this and it’s amazing. i made bacon fat mayo with all the bacon drippings and it’s insane. only thing i didn’t have were pickles so i added in some vinegar instead for that tangy kick.
