Egg Salad

Ingredients:
4 boiled eggs
1 cup iceberg lettuce chopped
¼ cup chives
2 spring onions chopped
1/3 cup mayonnaise dressing
Chopped rosemary and thyme
Salt and pepper for seasoning
Extra virgin olive oil.

Chop the boiled eggs in half and separate the yolks. Dice the whites into small cubes and keep aside, whilst mixing the yolks well into the mayonnaise to give the dressing a paste-like consistency. Add the chopped chives, spring onions and the diced egg whites to the dressing, along with the seasoning, and mix well. Place the freshly shredded iceberg lettuce into a large salad bowl and add the delicious mix of the egg salad to the crunchy leaves. Drizzle a sprinkling of extra virgin olive oil to balance the creamy texture of the salad, and serve chilled along with some hot garlic bread for a mouth-watering experience.
