Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large Eggs
- 0.33 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Fresh chives
- 0.25 cup Celery
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Place the eggs in a medium-sized pot and cover them with cold water. There should be about 1 inch of water above the eggs.
Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat. Once the water reaches a rolling boil, turn off the heat, cover the pot, and let the eggs sit for 10-12 minutes.
While the eggs are cooking, finely chop the chives and celery, and set them aside.
After the eggs are done, transfer them to a bowl of ice water to cool for about 5 minutes. This will make them easier to peel.
Peel the eggs and chop them into small, bite-sized pieces. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, chopped chives, celery, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice to the bowl with the eggs.
Gently mix everything together until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Serve the egg salad immediately on toasted bread, crackers, or over a bed of fresh greens. Alternatively, refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days for later use.
