I really enjoyed this, and it was easy to make. I used it to make a breakfast sandwich with two pieces of bread. I also used it as a snack with one piece of bread. I sometimes added a little salt, onion, and green olive.

This recipe is so sad. Where are the herbs? Where are the spices? Where is the flavor? Watching one's diet should not have to mean forcing oneself to choke down tasteless lumpy mush. I grate my eggs which provides the finished product with a soft texture and less "smashed mush". Instead of mayo, I used plain greek yogurt which provides a nice tang. For herbs, I tend to use Italian parsley but there are any number of fresh herbs that can be added for freshness. For spices, there are tons of options, I like sweet & hot paprika or Aleppo pepper & Sumac, Za'ater is is nice. Finishing with a toping of Everything Bagel Seasoning is a nice touch. When using this to make lunch, I use a tortilla to make a wrap which I stuff full of arugula and veggies like avocado, tomato & cucumber.

Love the recipe. I did add a few green olives to the other ingredients which is the way my mom always made it. This makes a great sandwich for dinner with lettuce and a bowl of fresh blueberries and bananas for dessert.

I always love egg salad and just made this. I've never put Dijon mustard or celery in it and gave this a whirl. I like the crunch the celery gives and the punch the mustard provides. Instead of mashing it with a fork, I roughly chopped then with a knife and used regular mayo since that's what I had on hand. I'll definitely be making it like this in the future.
