Yield: 12 stuffed egg halves
Cuisine: Southern American
Ingredients: 6 hard-boiled eggs; 1/4 cup mayonnaise; 1 tablespoon yellow mustard; 1 tablespoon sweet relish; 1/4 teaspoon salt; 1/4 teaspoon black pepper; 1/4 teaspoon paprika, plus extra for garnish; 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce (optional); 2 slices cooked bacon, crumbled; 2 tablespoons finely chopped green onions; 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

Peel the hard-boiled eggs and slice them in half lengthwise. Carefully remove the yolks and place them in a mixing bowl.
Mash the egg yolks with a fork until they are crumbled into fine pieces.
Add the mayonnaise, yellow mustard, sweet relish, salt, pepper, paprika, and hot sauce to the mashed yolks. Mix everything together until well combined and creamy.
Fold in the crumbled bacon, chopped green onions, and shredded cheddar cheese until evenly distributed throughout the yolk mixture.
Taste the mixture and adjust the seasonings to your liking. Add more salt, pepper, or hot sauce if desired.
Using a spoon or piping bag, fill each egg white half with the yolk mixture, mounding it slightly for an elegant presentation.
Sprinkle a pinch of paprika over the stuffed eggs for a pop of color and flavor.
Refrigerate the Southern Stuffed Eggs for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together and chill the eggs before serving.
Serve the stuffed eggs on a decorative platter garnished with fresh parsley or additional green onions for a touch of elegance.
