πŸ₯š This Egg Salad Recipe offers a creamy, flavorful classic that’s quick and easy to prepare for any meal or snack.
πŸ₯ͺ Perfect for sandwiches, wraps, or salads, it combines smooth mashed yolks with fresh herbs and crunchy veggies for a satisfying bite.

  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 4 to 6 servings

Ingredients

– 8 large hard-boiled eggs, peeled and cooled

– Β½ cup mayonnaise

– 1 Β½ teaspoons yellow or Dijon mustard

– 1 green onion, thinly sliced

– 1 rib of celery, finely diced

– 2 teaspoons chopped fresh dill or Β½ teaspoon dried dill

– Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

1-Boil and cool the eggs properly: Getting started with this egg salad is straightforward and fun, even if you’re new to the kitchen. Begin by boiling your 8 large eggs for about 10 minutes until they’re hard-boiled, then cool them quickly in cold water to make peeling easier.

2-Separate and prepare the yolks and whites: Once peeled, cut the eggs in half and scoop the yolks into a bowl while finely chopping the whites.

3-Mix the creamy base with seasonings: Next, mash those yolks with Β½ cup mayonnaise, 1 Β½ teaspoons mustard, salt, and pepper until you get a smooth, creamy mixture. This step is crucial for that rich texture everyone loves.

4-Fold in the fresh veggies and herbs: Then, fold in the chopped egg whites, sliced green onion, diced celery, and dill, mixing everything well and adjusting seasoning as needed.

5-Chill and serve in your favorite way: Once it’s ready, chill it in the fridge for a bit before serving on bread, rolls, over lettuce, with crackers, or in a tortilla wrap.

Notes

πŸ•°οΈ Older eggs are easier to peel, making preparation smoother.
πŸ₯„ Mashing the yolks before folding in the whites creates a creamier texture.
🌿 Experiment with substituting green onion with chives or red onion, or add dill pickles or sweet relish for added flavor.
