WHAT'S FOR LUNCH? SUPER FLAVORFUL EGG SALAD with only 5 ingredients

As with all comfort food, there are as many recipes of egg salad as there are cooks. Here's how I make it.

EGG SALAD

serves 4

6 eggs

2 T mayonnaise 

1 T mustard

2 T fresh snipped dill

3 chopped pickled okra OR 1 T anchovy paste

Boil eggs for 10 minutes. 

Cool under cold water and peel under running cold water. Or boil ahead and place in refrigerator to peel later. 

Put the rest of your ingredients in a bowl.

Chop peeled boiled eggs and place in bowl. My dear friend Amanda S. once told me to use your pastry blender to chop the eggs. She's right! It's the easiest with minimal clean up. 

Stir by hand until well blended.

Serve on bread or with crackers. 

Egg salad always reminds me of picnics and Big Top Pee Wee.
