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.

BETTER-FOR-YOU EGG SALAD

Better-for-you Egg Salad image

Boil your eggs, and eat them, too!! This is a great egg salad, and is 3 ww points a serving, not including any bread. I like mine on toasted oat bran bread, but I'm sure rye bread would be tasty too!! My dog gets the discarded yolks! Prep time assumes eggs are already boiled. Modified from a Weight Watchers recipe.
