Egg Salad with Curry and Chives from the LA Times

I love eggs in all forms.  I find myself consuming them for both breakfast and dinner most weeks.  I mean, I can go through a dozen in just a few days.  And now with this new recipe I have found a way to really round out my egg diet and have them for lunch as well.  My Granny used to make deviled eggs with curry and this recipe tastes just like hers.  Add some chives and that really balances out all the flavors.  I like to make this for a weekend, have some in the fridge when I want lunch or just to snack on.  The LA Times calls for the salad to be served on a dark rye bread, I think they really nailed it with that suggestion.  Here is the recipe:

  • 5 hard boiled eggs
  • 1 to 2 Tsp curry powder
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup mayo (I use light-mayo by Best Foods)
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 Tbsp diced chives
You can chop your eggs or toss them in the Cuisinart and simply mix the rest of the ingredients together. It could not be any easier or more insanely good!  Happy egging, er, eating.
