Bacon Guacamole Angel-ed Eggs
My Grandma Mary is easily one of the most inspiring, kind, special and wise women on this planet. Gram also makes amazing ‘angel’ed eggs – her classic version of deviled eggs except she has always changed the name to make it a more joyful sounding food. We always opt to use angel as well.
I love to experiment with different ways to fill the eggs and have found several fun options – but this one is by far our favorite.
Eggs, Guacamole, and Bacon are 3 of our favorite foods, so why not have them all together in one awesome bite?!?! I love to make this easy appetizer to bring to parties. They can be made ahead of time and travel well. They also keep for a few days in the fridge, so I usually make extra to have on hand for an easy to grab snack. The kids love them in their lunches as well.
Delicious. Primal. Guilt-free. Simple. Yes Please!
Hope you love them as much as we do!!
