Spicy Egg Salad image

Egg salad with a little kick! Adjust the chile powder to your liking - start with less if you're not an affirmed chilehead & then increase as desired. Let egg salad rest 30 to 45 minutes after making final pepper addition to let flavors meld.

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 large eggs, hardboiled, cooled & peeled

1/2 cup diced onion
1 1/2 tablespoons prepared mustard (I use brown)
1/2 teaspoon mccormick chipotle chile
1/3 cup mayonnaise

Steps:

  • Dice eggs - I use an egg slicer & pass egg through twice at 90 degree angles for regular dice.
  • Stir in mustard, chile powder & mayo.
  • Fold in celery & onion.
  • Chill for 45 minutes.
  • Taste - be ready for a little toasty kick! Add salt & black pepper if desired. Serve with lettuce & thinly sliced tomato on lightly toasted dark pumpernickel. Enjoy!
