Simple Egg Salad

Directions

1. 1
   Remove the shells from the hard boiled eggs; discard shells.
2. 2
   Chop the eggs to the texture you prefer with a knife or pastry-cutter.
3. 3
   In a bowl, combine the chopped eggs and the remaining ingredients and stir well.
4. 4
   Eat on a sandwich right away or chill for about an hour and eat later.
5. 5
   Note: I use the dried minced onion specifically because they have a really nice crunchy texture that adds a lot to egg salad! If you like, you can substitute fresh onion, but the dried really is very nice.

   Note #2: I always put a little curry powder in my egg salad, just as I put it in my deviled eggs (see recipe # 31179), and it's wonderful! Other additions/substitutions you can make to egg salad include: celery seed, yellow mustard, sweet relish, pesto, chopped roasted red and yellow bell pepper, chopped sundried tomato, chopped artichoke heart.
