This simple recipe is a staple around my house.
I love making this for lunch for myself. It’s a recipe that I’ve been making for years now. The whole family enjoys this for dinner with a salad on the side.
It’s a great recipe for busy weeknights that’s for sure.
When we had a brunch here a while ago, I made a huge batch of this delicious egg salad. It was devoured. I had rye bread and rolls for everyone to make their own sandwiches.
So many of the guests asked me for the recipe, I said, just go to my blog and print it out. LOL!
It’s easy to boil the eggs in the morning and pop them in the fridge for later on.
When I was a child my mom would serve this up with corn chips and I have kept that tradition. It’s the perfect combo.
