   Deviled Eggs Sprinkled with Bacon Bits

   INGREDIENTS
   12 eggs
   ½ cup mayonnaise
   ½ cup HORMEL® Real Bacon Bits plus more for garnish
   2 tablespoons finely shredded Cheddar cheese
   1 tablespoon mustard

   DIRECTIONS
   1. Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil and immediately remove from heat. Cover and let eggs stand in hot water 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from hot water and cool. To cool more quickly, rinse eggs under cold running water.
   2. Peel hard-cooked eggs and cut in half lengthwise. Remove yolks to a small bowl. Mash egg yolks with mayonnaise, bacon bits and cheese. Stir in mustard. Fill egg white halves with yolk mixture. Sprinkle more bits on top. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

     Morpfy,

     I love deviled eggs. When my friend asks what I want her to bring, I always say deviled eggs. This is different than the usual so I’ll be glad to try it!!

     Morpfy,
     I haven’t made a breakfast burrito though I have had huevos rancheros so I am open to Mexican for breakfast. This one sounds great.

   SLO-COOKING BUFFALO-CHICKEN SOUP
   ——————————————————
   Ingredients
   2 1/2 Pounds of skinless boneless Chicken breast
   2 Bottles Louisiana Supreme Chicken Wing Sauce
   1 Pound shredded sharp cheddar cheese
   1 Quart Half & half
   8 Tablespoons butter
   8 Tablespoons flour
   32 Ounces chicken stock
   1/2 Cup chopped red onion

   Celery and blue cheese as much as you like.
   Print Shopping List
   Instructions
   Take the chicken and place in a pan that has a cover. Take one bottle of wing sauce and add it to the chicken. Simmer this until the chicken is cooked. Remove chicken, let chicken cool and when cooled, shred with fork and add to Crock-Pot®. Take the liquid that cooked the chicken and pour that into the Crock-Pot®. Take the same pan and melt butter, add the flour to make a roux. While on low heat, stir until you get a nice nutty smell coming from the mixture. Do not let it get too brown, a nice light roux works good. Once you have a nice roux, add the half and half and stir. Now start to add the cheese until completely melted. When it starts to thicken remove from heat and add to Crock-Pot®. Pour the chicken stock into the crock-pot and mix. You can add the red onion. Do not use any salt when making this. The cheese will add a lot to it. Now take the second bottle of wing sauce and add as needed. I like it warm so I use the whole bottle.

   crock pot on LOW for 4 hours

     Morpfy,
     I love slo-cooker recipes. Put in the ingredients, turn it on and let the cooker do its stuff. When I was working, I’d make dinner in the morning and have enough for a few nights. I was happy to come home to a wonderful smell from the kitchen.

     Thanks!

     Gnu,
     This is another band I really know little about. I think this is the first song I’ve heard that lets me identify the singers. It’s good!
