Bacon and Horseradish Deviled Eggs

Sarah_Jayne's Note:

Come on,you know that sounds good! I developed these after attempting to overcome an addiction to bacon and horseradish dip I developed on my recent trip to the States. You can even make these vegetarian by using the Bacos bacon bits that are made out of soy instead of the actual bacon. The recipe can be scaled up pretty easily for bigger crowds. Also, this is one of those times when I am not totally clear on how to translate an ingredient from UK to US. I used what is called 'horseradish sauce' here in the UK. Which, I remember being somewhere in between prepared horseradish and horseradish cream in the States. So, I put one but you can probably use either.

I really like horseradish, so I knew I had to make this particular recipe. I wasn't disappointed. This was a nice change from the 'normal' deviled eggs out there. Thanks Sarah Jayne. Made for Auzzie/NZ Recipe Swap #27.

What a wonderful idea! Looking for some appetizer recipes to jazz up New Years... I came across this and thought it a great blend of flavors. I substituted prepared horseradish for the horseradish cream (only because that's what I had).. and used paprika on top instead of parsley (for the same reason). My family loved 'em!
