This Easy & Delicious Egg Salad Recipe will not just be an Easter leftover staple in your house but instead become an easy recipe to add to your day to day meal plan. Using eggs, celery, onion, mustard, mayo, lemon juice, salt and pepper make a meal in just a few minutes!
A few weeks ago I was at a friends house working on the school’s upcoming fundraiser. We decided we needed to stop for some lunch and she pulled out a freshly made batch of Egg Salad. We sat down and enjoyed that delicious egg salad on bread and I instantly decided I had to pick up some eggs to hard boil on the way home. YUM! I love egg salad and usually I only enjoy it after Easter by using our left over dyed eggs. I am not sure why I don’t enjoy egg salad more often but that is changing now that I have, in my opinion, created the perfect egg salad recipe. Bonus…it is a super easy egg salad recipe as well.

Yes. I am going to make some to take for lunches!
Egg salad is looking tempting. It is perfect for breakfast. I would love to make it.
I am not always a fan of egg salad but there’s something about your recipe that’s totally tempting me to give it a second chance. Maybe it’s all of the celery that’s in it? I’m a huge fan of veggies so that could be it!
I love egg salad and i’m always looking to mix it up a little. This looks delicious and i think my husband would like this one too. I do have a problem eating the hard boiled eggs as I am going. 🙂 I may have to make extra!
This is almost how I make mine; I use the dry dijon and no onions. The latter is for dear hubby, but I think I would *love* it with onions.
I give this an eat-out-of-the-bowl rating!
I had a wonderful egg and avocado sandwich the other day. It has been a looong time since I had an egg sandwich. After reading through your ingredient list, I am convinced I can make this in no time.
Chicken Salad and Egg Salad are my favorites during the spring and summer months. I’ve never tried it with mustard though but seeing your pictures I have saved it and will be. I love dijon mustard too.
I’m an egg person and seeing this recipe, I just realized I haven’t made egg salad sandwiches in a long time. Thanks for this yummy recipe!
This is pretty much my recipe for shrimp salad (plus Old Bay) – will need to try it for egg salad too!
I haven’t made an egg salad in ages!! I’m not a huge fan of celery but strangely enough I do like it in egg salads. I also add tabasco and mashed avocado!
