Ingredients

Instructions

Eggs

  • To hard boil my eggs I place in a pan, cover with water and bring to a boil. Boil for 5 minutes then place a lid on the pot and turn off the heat. Let this set for 10 minutes. Drain the water and add enough ice to cover eggs. Let this sit until the eggs are cold, about 10 minutes. Drain the cold water and shake them all around in the pan to loosen the shells. Most will slip right off but every once in a while there will be a stubborn one.

Egg Salad

  • Chop up the hard boiled eggs, Mix all ingredients together and let chill for at least an hour. I use scissors to snip my chives, I find it is easier than chopping with a knife.
