Storing

Store bacon ranch egg salad in an airtight container in the fridge.

The amount of time it stays good for will depend on how old the hard boiled eggs are.

You’ll want to discard the salad one week after you boil the eggs (not assemble the salad).

Tips and Tricks

  • Cook the bacon ahead of time so it’s cool and ready to crumble.
  • Add your favorite herbs into the salad for extra flavor.
  • Cheddar cubes are a delicious addition to this egg salad variety!

    I made this recipe recently for my family and it was a huge hit! The ranch offers subtle flavors and the bacon truly makes it next level! Everyone enjoyed having these sandwiches for school lunches last week. It’s a keeper.

    1. It’s my favorite way to enjoy egg salad now. With Easter coming up, I’m gonna have to make a big old batch of it with all those leftover hard boiled eggs!
