Egg Salad method - A Quick, Easy and Versatile Salad Idea

I don't know about you, but egg salad recipe is on my mind tonight. After a busy day at work and then a long (but excellent) work-out at the gym, I am naturally seeing for something relatively easy, uncomplicated and quick.




Egg salad is versatile because it can act as a side dish at breakfast or supper. You can put it in the middle of two slices of bread to make a sandwich as well. an additional one added bonus is that it doesn't need complex ingredients.

So how do you make egg salad? Here are some easy instructions.


First secure or make sure you have these ingredients (there is only 3 main ones so it might mean a quick stop at the grocery store on your way home):

6 eggs,

1 stalk of celery,

3/4 cup of mayonnaise or Miracle Whip (adjust this whole to your liking).

First, make some hard boiled eggs. It can be tricky but here's how I do it (you can result your own formula if that works best for you). Fill a pot with water up to 3/4 full, then add the eggs to the pot (Note: the eggs have to be fully submerged). Turn up the heat to high setting, then cover the pot. Remove the pot from heat of the stove as soon as boiling temperature is reached while retention the lid on and allow the eggs to cook for about 10 minutes to secure hard-boiled eggs.

In the meantime, finely chop the celery. After the 10 minutes are up, dump the water from the pot into the sink and shock the eggs in cold water. Peel and chop the eggs. In a large bowl, mix chopped eggs and celery with the mayonnaise or Miracle Whip.

That's it. Enjoy it as a side dish or if you just want something quick and simple, put it in the middle of two slices of toasted bread and taste with some salt and pepper. Happy cooking!
