Mayonnaise-based salads are an accompaniment at almost every picnic and summer barbeque, but they don’t need to be a bland afterthought. This recipe utilizes fragrant curry powder for an egg salad that is both creamy and spicy. We still use standard egg salad ingredients such as dijon mustard, lemon juice, and chopped celery, but if you’re still unsure about the curry powder add 1 tsp at a time to start until you reach your ideal level of seasoning. Serve this salad as a filling for an egg salad sandwich, over leafy greens, or just on its own. A note when mixing the egg salad: gently fold the eggs into the mayonnaise mixture to ensure they stay intact.
Note: If you would like, add 1-2 tsps homemade Curry Powder to add even more flavor to this delicious meal.
