Deviled Egg Salad
This dish has been a true staple in diners and coffee shops. Now, you can make this deviled egg salad as a staple for your very own!
Ingredients
Here's what you will need to make this twisted salad:
- eggs
- mayo
- mustard
- vinegar
- salt
- packaged salad kit (I bought this one that has romaine lettuce / croutons / Parmesan cheese)
- other toppings: dressing / vegetables (not shown but optional)
Egg Prep
First, hard boil the eggs in a pot of water for at least 10 minutes. Afterwards, crack the shells and peel them off. I recommend that you rinse the eggs in warm water, and cracking the shells with a spoon gently. Also, make sure that you rinse off any shells that might get on the eggs.
Prep Yolks
Next, cut the eggs lengthwise.
Add Other Ingredients
From there, use a spoon to transfer the yolks in another small bowl, and add the following:
- about 2 tbsp mayo
- 1.5 tsp mustard
- 1/8 tsp salt
- about 1 to 2 tbsp vinegar
Refill Shells
Now, grab your spoon and scoop out the yolk mixture and refill each egg shell.
Make a Bed of Lettuce
To make the salad, fill a large bowl with rinsed out lettuce.
Arrange the Eggs
Grab your deviled eggs that you've made earlier and arrange them on your bed of lettuce.
Finish Off
Finally, finish it off with any type of salad toppings you already have. I dressed up mine with croutons, Parmesan cheese, and ranch dressing. You can also add sliced tomatoes, onions, or whatever vegetables you have. I didn't have any of those, but that's an optional step that you can do to personalize your own deviled egg salad.
Done!
This dish reminds me of going back to the good ol' days of snacking on this at diners and coffee shops. This staple with really make a great summertime meal or anytime that you want!
