Instructions

  1. Hard boil the eggs either in the Instant Pot, a steamer, or by boiling them. See post for instructions on each of these methods.
  2. Peel the eggs and chop or mash them as much as you like. For chunkier egg salad, just do a rough chop. For a smoother, creamier egg salad, mash the hard boiled eggs with a fork in a large bowl.
  3. Add the mayonnaise, mustard, smoked paprika, salt, pepper, and dill. Stir to combine then serve on your favorite bread or croissants.

Notes

  • Storage: If you have leftover egg salad, it will keep in the fridge in an airtight container for 3-4 days.
