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.
