Delicious Egg Salad Recipe

I originally planned to make a fancy egg salad recipe, but after a challenging cooking experience today, I decided to go with a simpler recipe instead. This basic egg salad brought back nostalgic memories of simpler times in my life. It's delicious and reminds me of the egg salad my mom used to make. I added some celery to customize it to my liking, but at its core, it's a classic and delicious egg salad recipe. It's simple yet satisfying, perfect for when you want a no-fuss meal.

Perfect...... with a few adjustments. I usually dislike making major alterations to recipes, but I couldn't locate one here that contained all the essential ingredients for a delicious egg salad. This recipe provided a solid foundation. I included some finely chopped celery for added texture, 1 tsp of dill weed (a must-have for egg salad sandwiches), 1/2 tsp of onion powder in place of green onions (which I was out of), and opted for Dijon mustard to enhance the flavor. The result was fantastic - I devoured half of it before it could even be stored in the fridge for the following day's lunch.

Great recipe! I swapped out green onion for pickles and used Dijon mustard instead. The paprika added a nice touch. I served it on a bun with lettuce, tomato, and extra pickle slices. Thanks, Wifey!

The recipe was decent, but I would describe it as a starting point. I felt like my egg salad needed more ingredients, such as celery, red bell peppers, or anything that would add extra flavor and color.

I prefer using 3-4 oz of cream cheese along with 2 tbsp of mayo instead of just mayo. This combination prevents it from getting runny and enhances the taste and texture.

Fantastic Egg Salad! The only change I made was combining the mayo, mustard, onion, salt, pepper, and paprika beforehand to ensure all the flavors melded together seamlessly and to prevent the eggs from getting too mashed up.

I prepared this recipe for lunch today and my husband and I both loved it. For those struggling to get perfectly cooked hard-boiled eggs with easily removable shells, I recommend using an air fryer. I always use it to cook my eggs, and they turn out just right every time. I typically set it to 250 degrees and cook 6 extra-large eggs for 20 minutes, followed by a 10-minute cold water bath.

Great recipe! I customized it by adding 8 dashes of hot sauce and 2 tablespoons of pickle relish. I used a hand mixer to blend everything together and it turned out to make delicious sandwiches!

To start off, bring water to a boil and carefully add in your eggs. Let them boil for 15 minutes, then transfer them into ice water for another 15 minutes. The shells will come off easily, usually in just two pieces. This recipe is fantastic. I like to include green onions when available, or finely diced red onions with celery. Egg salad without celery is simply unthinkable! Additionally, I sprinkle in garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika, and toss in some diced pickles, sweet or dill – both types complement the salad well. Enjoy your meal!

This egg salad is right up my alley. I prefer it simple and straightforward. However, I personally would opt for finely chopped sweet onion instead of green onion in the mixture as I find the latter too overpowering. The cooking method for the eggs is perfect if you desire bright yellow yolks. Using an egg slicer to chop them quickly is a neat trick. Eggs that are a week or older are easier to peel than the freshest ones. Add a leaf of crunchy Iceberg lettuce, and you've got yourself the ideal sandwich.

I have been using this Egg Salad base recipe for years and it never fails to impress! I always like to enhance it with some dried dill weed as I believe egg and dill are a match made in heaven. For extra crunch, I throw in some diced celery. A touch of Dijon mustard adds the perfect tanginess without overpowering the flavors—around 1/2 to 1 tsp works well depending on the batch size. I enjoy serving this delicious Egg Salad on Country Grain bread with a romaine lettuce leaf and a side of aged cheddar cheese. This versatile recipe allows for endless variations to suit your personal preferences—I highly recommend it as a must-have in your collection!

I included some finely chopped celery for an added crunch and flavor. It was a great addition.

Delicious! I enjoy adding a touch of sugar to my mayo and mustard mixture, along with some sweet pickle relish when making egg salad. For a twist, I recommend trying it with smoked paprika. I've been making this recipe for years, and it's always a hit with a few tweaks. Give it a shot!

Perfect timing and method for preparing soft boiled eggs.

This recipe reminds me of my mom's classic dish. It may be old, but it's definitely a good one. I experimented with adding different veggies over the years, but sticking to the original recipe really hits the spot.

Great basic recipe that reminds me of my grandmother and aunts' cooking. The only tweak I made was adding around 1/4 teaspoon of dill, which elevated the flavors beautifully.

Rewritten review: Making egg salad was simple, and its taste was fantastic! I already adore egg salad, but this one was especially flavorful. I loved it.

I adored it completely!

Simple and delicious! 😋

It's the best.
