I think egg salad is one of my favorite sandwiches. Well at least the best cold sandwich, I can’t let panini sandwiches slip through my fingers, not getting any praise. Good on you panini. You get a gold star, high five.
But now I think I know where my eggs all go. This almost uses a whole carton. But it is definitely worth it.
I’ve also recently become EXTREMELY obsessed with chipotle. I bought the real deal, and also the powder. Usually when I make egg salad, I sprinkle, no, I DUMP most of my chipotle powder in there. The egg salad then ends up looking redish. This time I controlled myself. I need to save this stuff for another dish.
..I really do sound like an addict :p
What you’ll need:
-8 eggs
-1/2 cup mayonnaise
-1 teaspoon mustard
-1/3 cup chopped green onions
-1/2 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
+salt and pepper to taste
Directions
1. Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring the water to a boil and immediately remove from heat.
2. Let eggs stand in the hot water for around 10 minutes
3. Remove from hot water, and place in a bowl of cold water. Peel the eggs, and chop them into cubes.
4. Place the chopped eggs into a medium bowl and stir in the mayonnaise, mustard, green onions and chipotle powder. Season with salt and pepper.
Oh I love the idea of using chipotle in egg salad! Definitely will have to give that flavor combination a try!
I love egg salad and this is a version that I've never tried … Thx 🙂
Hi Cathleen, I love egg sandwich too. Next time you try to add 1 or 2 boiled potatoes, mash it and add to the eggs, it taste excellent.
Have a nice day.
What a great add on to a traditional favorite. I love Chipotle too!
