Simple Egg Salad Recipes?

I have been craving an egg salad sandwich, but I want one with normal everyday ingredients. I really just need to know how much to put in it. I want mayo/miracle whip, eggs, sweet pickle relish, and mustard. Any ideas?Simple Egg Salad Recipes?
Well, I'm a kosher dill pickle girl myself, but:


2 eggs, @ 1 TBSP mayo, @ 2 tsp relish %26amp; mustard, salt %26amp; pepper


should do you. Oh, I like onions in mine, as well. And always start with about 1/2 the mayo you think you should use, then add some more if you think it is too dry once you've finished mixing everything in -- that way it won't be runny.

What about Egg-Potato Salad? This is my original recipe. My nieces and nephews crave for this salad every week. And to think that I don't know how to cook. I was just experimenting.





6 Hardboiled Eggs (diced into six or eight ';cubes';)


6 Medium-sized Potato (peeled, boiled and diced into cubes the same size with the eggs)


Mayo (220ml or 7.48 fl oz)


Sweet Pickle Relish (1 cup)


Onion (1 big one sliced into very small pieces, as in teeny weeny)


Ground Black Pepper (1/2 teaspoon)





While the eggs and potatoes are boiling, mix the relish and sliced onion. Add the potatoes (cooled first), then the mayo and pepper. Mix Mix. The sliced eggs come in last. Mix Mix. Then taste.





If you try this, give me your feedback, ok. Good luck.
My normal recipe for egg salad:





- 1 1/2 tbsp onions chopped finely


- 4 hard boiled eggs (mash)


- Miracle whip or Japanese style mayo (e.g. Kewpie)


- 1 tsp mustard (optional)


- 1 tsp of dried parsley (optional)


- Pinch of salt and pepper to taste





Combine all the ingredients and mix. Usually I would combine both miracle whip and the Japanese style mayo (really rich flavour). The onions is to give it a tad of sweetness, so that the sourness of the mayo and mustard doesn't overpower it.

Use one egg ';yolk'; and the (hardened) whites of another egg or two. . .to cut down on cholesterol. (As one egg yolk = 70% of suggested daily allowance.)





Also. . .an easy trick. . .use ';eggless'; mayo. . .it's becoming increasingly popular. . .and if you run into any problems finding it, see your local Trader Joe's store (originally from So. Cal. but now in a number of states throughout the country).





Enjoy!
