Sometimes 'simple' is best. Quick to prepare, and always delicious. I like it best when served on fresh croissants with crispy lettuce. Servings will vary depending on how much you pile it on. :) Cooking time is time needed to chill.

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

4 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
1 tablespoon salad dressing (I prefer Miracle Whip)
1/2 teaspoon honey mustard
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons chives, chopped

Steps:

Blend together salad dressing, honey mustard, salt and chives.
Fold into the chopped eggs.
Chill for 30 minutes before serving.

Tips:

Use hard-boiled eggs that are fresh: Older eggs may have a green ring around the yolk, which can make your egg salad less appealing.
Chop the eggs finely: This will help the egg salad to be more evenly distributed and easier to eat.
Use a variety of ingredients: Don't just stick to the basics. Add some chopped celery, onion, or pickles for a little extra flavor and crunch.
Don't overmix the egg salad: Overmixing can make the egg salad too runny. Mix it just until the ingredients are combined.
Chill the egg salad before serving: This will help it to firm up and make it easier to spread.

Conclusion:

Egg salad is a classic dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. Whether you like it simple or loaded with ingredients, there's an egg salad recipe out there for everyone. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy lunch or snack, give egg salad a try.
