Bacon Wrapped Easter Eggs (aka Pig Eggs)

I love bacon and have been amusing my Sat students with my bacon wrapped appetizers. This one for Easter joins my list of super easy ones to make. I took quails eggs I found in Ranch 99 (an Asian grocery store chain) and hard boiled them. I shelled the mini eggs and placed them in some food coloring overnight. I added a bacon wrap to them and cooked them in a hot 500F oven until the bacon was crispy. Serve with your favorite sweet spicy barbecue sauce. Enjoy!

If you like this recipe, I have many more including my virally popular pineapple mozzarella rings. I’ve been adding more bacon wrapped madness to my recipe database: Doinks, mini frittata, turkey lollipop, apple pie, meatloaf, breakfast fatty, buffalo turds, pig candy, and bacon-weave animals.
