Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise and Cajun seasoning. Adjust the amount of Cajun seasoning to your preference for spice. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Add the hard-boiled eggs to the bowl. Using a fork, gently mash the eggs to your desired consistency, leaving some chunks for texture. (3 minutes)

03

Step

Incorporate the grated Cheddar cheese and crumbled cooked bacon into the egg mixture. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Stir all ingredients together until thoroughly combined. Ensure that the cheese and bacon are evenly distributed throughout the egg salad. (1 minute)

05

Step

Transfer the egg salad to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. This step is crucial for enhancing the overall taste. (30 minutes)

For an even richer flavor, consider using a smoked cheddar cheese.
If you prefer a creamier texture, add an extra tablespoon of mayonnaise.
This egg salad is excellent served on croissants, toasted bread, or even as a filling for stuffed tomatoes.
For a vegetarian option, omit the bacon and add a pinch of smoked paprika for a smoky flavor.
