My mother-in-law used to make this version of egg salad and it hits the spot. One of my favorites on a sandwich.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

Take your egg salad sandwich to another level with this fancy egg salad. There's crunch from finely chopped celery and a nice tang from chopped green olives. With mustard and onion powder, this version has a very refined flavor. Depending on how small the hard-boiled eggs are chopped, this could be served as a delicious tea sandwich, on a roll or bagel, or as a great dip.
