Instructions

  1. Cut the eggs in half. Remove the yolks and place them in a bowl or a shallow dish. Finely chop the egg whites.
  2. Using a fork, mash the egg yolks with mayonnaise, mustard, and a pinch of salt & pepper until smooth and creamy.
  3. Add the chopped egg whites, green onion, and celery. Stir well.
  4. Serve on bread or over lettuce.

Notes

  • To Hard Boil Eggs: Place eggs in a saucepan on the stovetop and cover with water ½-inch above the eggs. Bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Remove from the heat and let stand covered for 15-17 minutes (for large eggs). Transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water for 5 minutes.
  • Store leftover egg salad in a covered container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
