Jana's Corner & One and Done Recipes

Jim (my husband) has a few recipes up his sleeve that we all love, and his egg salad is the best! We request it often. Warning: cooking hard-boiled eggs may cause your house to have a certain aroma. 😫

Ingredients

• 6 hard-boiled eggs
• Mayonnaise (quantity explained below)
• 3 drops of mustard
• Ground pepper to taste
• Salt to taste
• Potato masher (this utensil seems to hide in plain site)

Instructions

1. Prepare Eggs
   • Peel the hard-boiled eggs and add them to a mixing bowl. If you only have fewer eggs, adjust the other ingredients accordingly.
2. Mash Eggs
   • Use a potato masher to smash the eggs to your preferred consistency. Jim likes them finely mashed, but you can leave some chunks if you prefer.
3. Add Mayonnaise
   • For every 3 eggs, add enough mayonnaise as if you were making one sandwich. Start with a small amount and add more if needed to reach your desired creaminess. You do not want to overdo the mayo, as it can overwhelm the salad.
4. Add Mustard
   • Add one drop of mustard for every two eggs. Adjust according to your taste. If you are not a fan of mustard, use even less.
5. Season
   • Mix in salt and pepper to taste.
6. Serve
   • Best served on toast, but it’s also great in sandwiches or on its own as a side dish.
   • Add spinach or spring mix for some freshness.
