    Iโ€™ve been making egg salad for as long as I can remember. Itโ€™s a great protein packed meal that can be eaten as is or made into a delicious egg salad sandwich. Egg Salad Itโ€™s a fairly simple recipe, one that my mom taught me, and I never had a written recipe until now. My mom taught me to make this much the same as she taught me to make deviled eggs: by site and taste. Since I wanted to share this recipe with you, I finally sat down and measured out the ingredients. Egg Salad I enjoy this recipe eaten as is out of a bowl, maybe with some sweet pickles on top, but I also love this recipe made into a sandwich. I love to use sourdough bread, ciabatta bread, or toasted white bread, piled high with the egg salad, and topped with sweet pickles. Sweet pickles and egg salad is an amazing combo! To make this recipe all you have to do is hard boil eggs, see my instructions here, mash them (I use a potato masher because it is so easy!), and then mix all the ingredients together. Finally, refrigerate the mixture for at least 30 minutes so all the flavors can combine and it gets nice and cold. Then enjoy! Egg Salad Sandwich One of my favorite sandwiches and the fact that it is so easy to make, makes it even better! Give this recipe a try and let me know how you like it! Do you have a recipe you make from taste and look as opposed to a written out recipe? Iโ€™d love to know! This sandwich would go great with a cold mint julep, some pasta salad, and a delicious strawberry chocolate cupcake for dessert!
