Tips for the Perfect Egg Salad for One
-
Add a touch of relish for a slightly sweeter egg salad.
-
If you’re sensitive to spice, omit the crushed red pepper.
-
Experiment with different types of bread. Egg salad for one is great with whole wheat, sourdough, baguette, or rye bread.
-
If you like your yolks a little softer, boil for just 8 minutes. This will give you a deliciously soft amber yolk that’s perfect for mixing.
Make Ahead
For those ultra-busy weeks, you can boil a batch of Happy Eggs in advance and store them in your fridge. When you need a quick, convenient meal for one, just mix up the salad, toast some bread, and you’re ready to go!
