Egg Salad


Ingredients

6 eggs

1/4 cup mayonnaise

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

1/2 teaspoon prepared yellow mustard

1/2 lemon, juiced

1/4 cup chopped green onions

salt and pepper to taste

( I added 1 TBS of homemade Ranch to add more favor)



Directions

1.Place egg in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil and immediately remove from heat. Cover and let eggs stand in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from hot water, cool and peel. For faster cooling, place the eggs in an ice bath before peeling.

2.In a medium bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, yellow mustard, lemon juice and green onions. Chop the eggs into big chunks and mix gently with the dressing. Season with salt and pepper.

Layered Salad

Layered Salads are so yummy and fresh. Last weekend I made these in Wide Mouth Mason Jars, which would be great for cookouts etc. I did it so I could leave the dressing, eggs, and onion off of Harrison's and have one for one of John's customers that we were expecting to drop by who always enjoys a home cooked meal. We used to have LOTS of these when I was growing up and I think is a fave of my father.

So this is what I layered in mine plus salt and pepper, and frozen peas.

For the dressing I used Mayo and Ranch dip (since that is what I had) Here is a link to Pioneer Woman's Layered Salad with many more details and pictures. http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2010/08/layered-salad/
