Hi Everyone!
I am going to share a recipe with you today that screams picnic season, however, I will be using an ingredient that may make you think Fall, which is pumpkin! Yup pumpkin! You know I’m a food blogger and I like to break the rules when it comes to cooking and baking, so today I have the perfect recipe that screams summer and pumpkin, which is my Chipolte Bacon Pumpkin Deviled Eggs. Oh my gosh, you have no idea how amazing these deviled eggs are!! Yummers!!
Let me tell you this is one deviled egg recipe that will blow your mind! It’s made with Libby’s Pumpkin, chipotle peppers, bacon and of course eggs! It has the perfect amount of heat without burning your mouth. It’s got a nice savory chew from the bacon and it’s all mixed together with Libby’s Canned Pumpkin. It makes for the perfect spring time dish and it’s healthy too because I didn’t use mayonnaise.
I like to use pumpkin all year round and I always keep a can of it in stock! It’s a great substitute for mayonnaise and other dishes that you want to reduce the fat. I love pumpkin because it’s full of fiber, vitamin A, all natural and it tastes darn good! I go through a pumpkin stage about every few months and I just love it! So next time your thinking pumpkin is Fall, think again, it’s great anytime of the year!!
