Bacon Ranch Deviled Eggs are a delicious savoury twist on classic deviled eggs. The filling is a divine mixture of creamy ranch dressing, bacon, Dijon mustard and chives.
We eat a lot of eggs in our home. I use them for baking, breakfast recipes (hello scrambled eggs!), lunch, casseroles and lots of other ways. They’re protein-packed, versatile and just plain delicious. Deviled eggs are one of my all-time favourite appetizers like these Bacon Ranch Deviled Eggs I’m sharing with you today. You won’t be able to stop at just one!
World Egg Day
Did you know that October 9th is World Egg Day? On this day, the Egg Farmers of Canada and us Canadians celebrate the hardworking people in our food industry who bring us fresh, local and high quality eggs to our kitchens. Our recipes would not be the same without them!
Our Canadian egg farmers deserve some appreciation. They are located across our beautiful country in all 10 provinces and the Northwest Territories. Let’s take a moment to thank them and tell them how much we appreciate all the important work they do.
I recently learned that Canada’s egg farming sector donated millions of eggs to food banks across Canada. Giving back and supporting communities matters to them and it’s a great sight to witness.

In honour of World Egg Day, I have a mouthwatering appetizer for you to make for your family. If you love deviled eggs, you have to try this yummy twist.
This recipe is great because you can make it ahead of time and store it in the fridge till you are ready to serve. Once we can get back to doing potlucks and parties, I know I’ll be bringing some to share with everyone.
Matty, my fiancé, ate quite a few and I had to tell him to leave me some to try. They are a great little snack or side dish for lunch.
Ingredients
Grab a dozen eggs and a few other ingredients you probably have in your fridge right now.
- Hardboiled eggs
- Ranch salad dressing – I used the liquid dressing not the powdered mix.
- Mayonnaise – It adds more creaminess
- Dijon mustard – For that flavour kick
- Fresh chives
- Cooked bacon – I make mine in the oven so clean-up is easier
- Paprika
- Pepper
I didn’t include any extra salt because I find the bacon is salty enough and I don’t want to overpower the recipe.
How to Make
- Cut hardboiled eggs in half lengthwise. Scoop out the yolk into a bowl and set the white parts aside.
- Add Ranch dressing, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, chives, and bacon to the bowl with the yolks and stir to combine. Season with pepper.
- Add about two teaspoons of the yolk mixture to the hollowed out portion of the egg whites. Sprinkle with paprika and top with extra chives and bacon, if desired.
- Refrigerate until ready to serve.
How Far Ahead Can You Prepare
You can start making this recipe 1 to 2 days ahead. Keep the egg whites and yolk filling separate until you are ready to serve. Make sure they are covered in plastic wrap in your fridge until you are ready to assemble.
How to Store
If you end up having any extra deviled eggs, store them in the fridge, covered, for up to 3 days.
