Bacon, bacon, bacon, bacon, bacon, ahhhhh, bacon! Bacon is one of those ingredients that can totally make a difference when added to any recipe just like in these bacon egg salad sandwiches. It’s savory flavor is like no other.
Well today is #internationalbaconday . Bacon is most definitely worthy of an entire day of celebration. It is wonderful by itself but great as an ingredient too!
In celebration, I have a great bacon egg salad sandwich for you all. I love egg salad but this one is “dank” (according to my oldest son). The egg salad itself is elevated by the addition of cream cheese to help with the creaminess factor.
It also incorporates fresh chives and shredded cheese. This adds to the savory flavor of the salad, but then there’s crispy bacon. The bacon is really what takes this egg salad from great to amazing. It is best mixed in right before preparing the sandwiches so it can maintain it’s crunchy texture.
I also have 23 other amazing bacon recipes for you to add to this day of celebration. If egg salad isn’t your thing, I am positive you can find one recipe in the collection that will tempt you.
