Basic Egg Salad
Picture
This is a staple salad that everyone (who likes eggs) should be able to make.

It is an easy and versatile salad that you can change up however you want, for instance, I put olives in my egg salad but you don’t have to. 

The thing to remember when you are making an egg, potato, ham, or whatever wet salad is that you mix the dressing first so that all the ingredients are evenly distributed when you mix the dressing and the solid ingredients.

What You Will Need:
10                    Eggs
½         c.         Green Sliced Olives
½         c.         Mayo
1          TB       Mustard
2          TB       Dill Pickle Relish (More or Less)
½         tsp.      Garlic
½         tsp.      Dill
¼         tsp.      Salt
¼         tsp.      Pepper

What You Do:
1.  Boil the Eggs using my foolproof (almost) method
2.  Slice or Chop the Eggs
3.  Put Eggs and Olives in a mixing bowl
4.  Mix the Mayo and the rest of the ingredients well.
            (Always mix the wet separately, THEN add to eggs)
5.  Now add it all together and you have Egg Salad
