Ingredients
  

  • 6 hard boiled eggs (small)
  • 2 teaspoons mustard (see note 1)
  • 6 strips bacon (cooked, see note 2)
  • 2 tomatoes (sliced, see note 3)
  • 3 baby romaine lettuce (see note 4)
  • salt (to taste)
  • black pepper (to taste)

Instructions
 

  • Cut each hard-boiled egg in half. Take one half, turn it over and cut some of the white off so that when you turn it back over, it will stand nicely. This will be the bottom half. Make sure not to do this with the other half (out of 12 halves, you will need to prep 6 only).
  • Now, sprinkle each egg yolk with salt and black pepper and spread some mustard over. Top the bottom halves with a strip of bacon, a slice of tomato, a piece of lettuce and cover with the other egg half. Secure with a toothpick or cocktail stick.
  • Sprinkle some more black pepper over as well as some sesame seeds (optional).
  • Enjoy!

Notes

  1. Mustard can be substituted with mayo, horseradish or ketchup.
  2. Bacon - use any bacon you like. You can buy ready-cooked or cook it yourself. You might also need less than 6 strips/slices if you cut each of them in 3 pieces instead of 2 (this will depend on their length though).
  3. Tomatoes - I used tomatoes on the vine that were smaller than your ordinary tomatoes but larger than cherry tomatoes. These were perfect for this recipe. Try avoiding using very large tomatoes. Plum tomatoes are also a great choice!
  4. Romaine lettuce can be substituted with other lettuce varieties.
  5. These egg sliders can be prepared a few hours ahead of time. I recommend 2-4 hours max. I don’t recommend preparing them overnight as the lettuce wilts and the tomatoes also don’t look their best. However, you can cook the eggs and bacon the night before serving.
  6. I prefer using small-medium size eggs. Large eggs might be more difficult to eat. If this does not concern you, then go ahead and use large eggs.
