Zippy Egg Salad image

My favorite egg salad for sandwiches--I love it on whole wheat or egg bread with lots of fresh crisp lettuce. I adapted this from a friend's way of making egg salad. I use the same ingredients for both egg salad and deviled eggs--the only differences are the amounts and what I do with the eggs. Amounts are approximate--adjust them to suit your taste. Times are estimates and don't include time to boil and cool the eggs.
