amazing summer egg salad
Let me ask you a question... what is more American than egg salad? Here’s a simple egg salad that’s sure to please. It’s easy to assemble, and if you have a chance to allow it to sit for a few hours (or overnight), the flavors will taste even better. I made mine with some sweet relish (optional), and it really kicked it up. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.
