Egg Salad Recipe



Egg Salad RecipeA tasty egg salad recipe that is simple and easy to make with hard cooked eggs, mayonnaise, and pepper. Egg salad can also be served on top of crackers as part of a brunch menu or as an appetizer.

An egg salad sandwich is one of the most basic recipes for hard cooked eggs. Since it can be ready to eat in about 10 minutes it can be packed for a nutritious high protein lunch. Try changing the bread to something with a little more body, such as a French or Italian bread, rather than the standard store bought breads. It will make a much better tasting sandwich.

To serve egg salad on crackers for part of a brunch menu, use a quality cracker with a mild flavor such as butter, sesame, or wheat.  Place a tablespoon of egg salad on each, top with 1 piece of sliced green olive and sprinkle with paprika. Place on a tray to serve for brunch or as a party appetizer.

Ingredient List:


6 hard cooked eggs
1/4-1/2 cup Hellman's Real Mayonnaise
1/2 to 1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
8 slices bread (2 per serving)


Kitchen Equipment Needed

medium mixing bowl

Instructions:

Step 1:  Peel 6 hard cooked eggs and rinse if necessary to make sure there is no shell left on the egg. Pat dry.

Step 2:  Place all in a medium sized bowl and mash the eggs with a fork until they are relatively uniform in size.

Step 3:  Add in 1/4 cup mayonnaise to start. Add more mayonnaise if needed to make a paste-like consistency, up to 1/2 cup.

Step 4:  Grind the fresh pepper to taste and mix in.

Step 5:  Serve on a soft bread with a crusty shell.

Note:  You may also add salt if desired, but I feel the mayonnaise adds enough flavor on its own that you do not need any extra salt.
If you choose to add salt, do so sparingly in small increments.

Makes 4 sandwiches.
