DEVILED EGG NOODLE SALAD
Just so everybody's clear, we are not making deviled eggs and then turning them into a noodle salad. We are actually making a salad with the same flavors, using egg noodles. Because we use so many ingredients that typically are used for deviled eggs, this salad really did have a similar flavor profile, and tastes amazing. Garnish the salad with freshly chopped chives and green onions.

EGG NOODLE SALAD
I used those short twisty looking egg noodles for the salad, because they were very cheap and affordable. You can make this ahead of time, but I find the avocado turns brown if it's not sprinkled with lemon juice, and I found lemon juice doesn't really go with this salad, taste wise.

Steps:
- Combine first five ingredients in a large bowl.
- In a smaller bowl, combine the remaining ingredients to create a dressing.
- Thoroughly combine the salad with the dressing, before serving at room temperature. Be careful to get the bottom of the salad coated with the dressing, as that is a difficult part for me.

GARDEN EGG NOODLE SALAD
This came from the No Yolk Egg Noodle company, but you can use any type egg noodles you like. I made a couple of changes, but this recipe is very forgiving, you can put in your favorite fresh veggies and make it your very own. Cook time is actually "chill" time.

Tips:
- Use Fresh Garden Eggs: For the best flavor and texture, use fresh garden eggs that are firm and blemish-free.
- Boil the Noodles Al Dente: Cook the noodles according to the package instructions, but aim for a slightly al dente texture. This will help them hold their shape better in the salad.
- Chill the Noodles: After boiling the noodles, rinse them under cold water and then chill them in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This will help them firm up and make them more resistant to sogginess.
- Use a flavorful Dressing: The dressing is key to a great garden egg noodle salad. Use a combination of savory and sweet ingredients, such as soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and honey.
- Add Plenty of Vegetables: In addition to the garden eggs, add a variety of other vegetables to your salad, such as shredded carrots, cucumber, bell peppers, and bean sprouts. This will add color, texture, and nutrients to the dish.
- Optional Add-Ins: Feel free to add other ingredients to your salad, such as cooked chicken, shrimp, or tofu. You can also top the salad with a sprinkle of chopped nuts or seeds for added crunch.
