BARB'S NOT SO TRADITIONAL EGG SALAD

Barb's Not so Traditional Egg Salad image

I am not crazy about eggs; I like them, but I have to mask them a bit. When I scramble eggs, I always add cheese. I was looking in my fridge one day; badly needing to go food shopping...trying to come up with something for lunch. I had eggs and I had mayonaise. I always have fresh herbs and spices, so I thought I could probably pull off an egg salad that was kicked up from the normal "yolky" tasting traditional egg salad. It worked well! I just made my egg salad last night; my son called me a work this afternoon to rave about how much he loves it!
