Directions
- Cut hard-boiled eggs in half lengthwise.
- Remove the yolks and crumble them in a bowl.
- Add 1/3 cup Miracle Whip or mayonnaise, mustard, pickle juice and salt. Stir until smooth and creamy.
- Equally divide the filling among the 12 egg halves, spreading the filling in an even layer over top of the egg. Leave about an 1/8th of an inch border around the outer edge of the egg.
- Sprinkle bacon over top and use your fingers to press the bacon into a football shape.
- Spoon the remaining 1 tablespoon of Miracle Whip or mayonnaise into a small zip top bag. Snip off the tip leaving a small opening.
- Pipe a straight line of mayo down the center of each egg, going lengthwise.
- Add 3-4 short lines of mayo going across the long line to create the football laces.
- Serve and enjoy!
