My husband has been amazing throughout my pregnancy. He has really chipped in to try to make meals and keep baby and myself well nourished while I am running like mad trying to finish a lot of projects and prep a lot of things before baby comes. He gets really excited when he makes a “winner” that is his own creation and not just repeating one of my meals. I appreciate it whatever it is, because I know it was made with consideration and love. I have never really given much thought to egg salad because I associate it with the store bought junk they pass off as real food in the deli section. BUT… my husbands simple recipe is incredibly delicious and has become my new obsession! I have eaten it on top of steamed broccoli with sprouts, as an open face gluten-free sandwich, just in a bowl by itself and on top of a salad mix. I am sure in the coming weeks I will be able to list 5 more ways I have enjoyed this creamy nourishing recipe! Hope you enjoy it just as much! Great to keep in a container in the fridge for quick grab and go protein and fat.

My Husbands Simple & Delicious Egg Salad
Author: Briana Michel
Recipe type: Egg salad
Prep time: 10 mins
Cook time: 12 mins
Total time: 22 mins
Serves: 5
Ingredients
12 organic hardboiled eggs (we use the little dome egg cookers for a 12 minute cook time!)
¾ cup real mayo (we use Sir Kensington's because it is without the EDTA and soybean oil crud! Just real ingredients or Primal Kitchen Avocado Mayo)
1 Tbsp yellow mustard
¼ cup diced onion
sea salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
Hard boil a dozen eggs. Let them cool, then peel. Diced up eggs into small chunks. In a large bowl using a spatula mash in mustard, mayo, salt and pepper with the eggs. Fold in the raw chopped onion. Keep refrigerated until ready to eat. Add fresh sprouts to the top - this is a game changer too.. the spouts add a texture and earthiness that compliment the eggs.
Have on a bed of greens, over broccoli, scoop with cucumbers or do an open face sammy. Makes about 5 servings.
