The weather is warming and summer is just a few short weeks away which means its BBQ season! Time to invite your friends over, head out to the backyard and put something delicious on the grill. No BBQ is complete without deviled eggs and today I am sharing my recipe for candied bacon deviled eggs. Yum!
