THE BEST EGG SALAD



The Best Egg Salad image

While we love a jazzed up version of egg salad, we always come back to this one for its simplicity, clean flavors and sheer nostalgia. This is the best version of a classic egg salad. It's bright with herbs and the mayonnaise-to-egg ratio is just right, making it perfectly mound-able on a sandwich or bowl of greens. If you are serving a crowd, the recipe is easily doubled, or you can just keep some extra in the fridge for whenever the craving strikes.
