Egg Salad for Easter Egg Leftovers

How to make egg salad

Homesteaders are masters of the eggs. You get creative with ways to eat the eggs your chickens produce. There's defiantly something to be said about eating homegrown food and the serenity of our farm life. I'm convinced that the simple and basic living of farm life is what makes it serene.

Last week-end, my son Hoy visited the Morgan Family Farm, accompanied by his beautiful wife Kelsey and his team of co/workers. From the busy, concrete jungle and work cubicles to the fresh air and wide open spaces of Western Oklahoma. They enjoyed coyote hunting, fishing and of course farm fresh cooking.


Since Easter Sunday is upon us, I thought I'd share a Basic Egg Salad for Easter Egg leftovers. After all, I am the egg master. You can add your very own flavor profiles to this egg salad and make it your very own. Let's go!

What You'll Need: 


1 Dozen Hard-Boiled Eggs
1/2 cup Mayonnaise
1 to 2 T. Grainy Mustard
1 t. Worcestershire Sauce
1 t. White Vinegar
Salt and Pepper to taste

Here's How:

Start out by putting an egg in a handy dandy egg slicer. If you don't have one, no worries you can slice up your eggs with a knife. If you want to purchase your very own handy dandy egg slicer, go HERE. The interweb is full of them. Continue slicing all of the hard-boiled eggs, adding them to a medium sized bowl.

Variations:

For mine I sliced a half cup of green olives and added them to the salad, because I have a secret love affair with olives.
