Egg salad with bacon is a paleo-friendly egg salad recipe. Enjoy this paleo egg salad as a lettuce wrap or eat as is. This is a delicious, quick and easy paleo-friendly lunch recipe.
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!

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.
