THE BEST EGG SALAD



The Best Egg Salad image

While we love a jazzed up version of egg salad, we always come back to this one for its simplicity, clean flavors and sheer nostalgia. This is the best version of a classic egg salad. It's bright with herbs and the mayonnaise-to-egg ratio is just right, making it perfectly mound-able on a sandwich or bowl of greens. If you are serving a crowd, the recipe is easily doubled, or you can just keep some extra in the fridge for whenever the craving strikes.

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 (6 ounce) cans tuna
6 hard-boiled eggs

Let the eggs stand in the hot water for 10-12 minutes, depending on how hard you want them to be.
  • Mash your eggs with a fork instead of a food processor: This will give your egg salad a chunky texture that is more flavorful and satisfying.
  • Add your favorite mix-ins: There are endless possibilities when it comes to mix-ins for egg salad. Some popular choices include celery, onion, pickles, bacon, avocado, and grapes.
  • Season your egg salad to taste: Be sure to taste your egg salad before you serve it and adjust the seasoning as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or mayonnaise, depending on your preferences.

Conclusion:
