Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 stalk celery
- 1 stalk green onion
Instructions
Place the eggs in a medium-sized saucepan and cover them with cold water, about 1 inch above the eggs.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once it reaches a rolling boil, cover the saucepan with a lid, turn off the heat, and let the eggs sit for 10-12 minutes.
While the eggs are cooking, finely chop the celery and green onion and set them aside.
Once the eggs are done, drain the hot water and transfer the eggs into a bowl of ice water to cool completely, about 5 minutes.
Peel the cooled eggs and chop them into small, bite-sized pieces.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Add the chopped eggs, celery, and green onion into the bowl. Gently fold the mixture until everything is evenly combined.
Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed.
Serve immediately on bread, in a wrap, or with crackers, or refrigerate for up to 2 days.
