There is not one family event where we do not have an egg appetizer. These Caesar Deviled Eggs are a spin on the classic, and make the perfect #SimpleCheer holiday appetizer!

The question I get a lot as a vegetarian is: "do you eat eggs and dairy?"
I do! Kudos to vegans, but while I choose not to eat meat for many reasons, eggs, milk, and cheese are my life! I cannot live without them! Sure, there are great substitutes out there, but nothing beats a runny egg yolk paired with tons of cheese on a sandwich (especially when it is made by your husband!)
That being said, we are a family of egg lovers.
I had the opportunity to meet some wonderful people from Egg Farmers of Canada while at the Food Bloggers of Canada conference and as a blogger who likes to both cook and bake, I was really happy to talk with them. Funny enough, my sister had contacted me while I was away to say they ate all the eggs in the house and she had to buy more. It was perfect timing to relate with Egg Farmers of Canada 🙂
That being said, besides my sister watching my daughter while I was away, she provided me with today's recipe idea: caesar deviled eggs! Think caesar salad in deviled egg form. She doesn't really care for mayonnaise, and while caesar dressing has the same cosistencey, it definitely has a different flavor. Replacing mayo with dressing in these caesar deviled eggs really opens up the creativity department. I topped the caesar deviled eggs with bacon and parmesan to really give that traditional salad feel in this recipe.
While cleaning up after the photo shoot I totally realized I should have topped these onto an actual caesar salad! It would have been so fitting!
Enough yammering from me of what I should have done, and more about delicious eggs.
Not only are we looking for simple egg recipes this holiday season (be sure to take a look at everyone's tricks and tips using the hashtag #SimpleCheer) but we want great tasting food with the highest of standards. It takes less than 5 days for eggs to get from the farm to your kitchen, meaning you get only the freshest quality from Canadian Grade A eggs. Canada's eggs from the store are known for being among the best in quality and freshness in the world.
So whether you are watching Christmas movies or enjoying a family Christmas party, eggs are one of the most versatile ingredients you can use in your dishes 🙂 And if your family is like ours, deviled eggs will be fought over visciously until none remain!
Caesar Deviled Eggs (Caesar “Salad”)
Quick and easy, you will love these caesar deviled eggs during a family get-together or just during an evening of movie watching!

You can hard-boil your eggs a day or two in advance and peel them when needed.

Why add oil to the water?
Take a pan and add enough water to cover
the eggs. Bring to a hard boil, add your eggs
to the boiling water, set timer to 15 mins.
When the timer goes off put the eggs in an
ice bath. The shells will come off easy and
clean.
