Amazing Summer Egg Salad image

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.

Number Of Ingredients 11

PLAN/PURCHASE
3 tablespoon(s) mayonnaise
1 clove(s) garlic, baked and mashed
1 teaspoon(s) lemon juice, freshly squeezed
2 tablespoon(s) fresh parsley, chopped
- salt, kosher variety, to taste

1 tablespoon(s) fresh dill, chopped
2 tablespoon(s) sweet or dill relish (optional)

Steps:

  • PREP/PREPARE
  • Gather your ingredients.
  • Chef's Note: I apologize for the lack of step-by-step photos. I was making this dish for a lady's group Sunday brunch. I did, however, manage to get the finished result... Anyway, it came out so yummy that I just had to post it.
  • Chef's Note: To bake the garlic, wrap it in parchment paper with a bit of olive oil, and place into a 325f (160c) oven, for fifteen minutes, remove, and allow to cool.
  • Chop the hard-boiled eggs, chunky style.
  • Chef's Tip: You might want to remove the shells from the eggs before chopping. That is unless you like crunchy egg salad.
  • Add all the ingredients, except the eggs in a large bowl, and mix thoroughly.
  • Add the chopped eggs.
  • Gently toss until the eggs are completely coated.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 1-hour before serving.
  • PLATE/PRESENT
  • Serve on a large lettuce leaf, and sprinkle with a bit of sweet paprika. Enjoy.
  • Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
