This is my go-to, easy egg salad that’s always in a tupperware in the fridge.
Wrap the egg salad in crunchy lettuce leaves, roll in collard greens, or eat it straight up with a few Ella’s Flats for dipping. I also love topping them with crunchy veggies like radishes and cucumbers or adding fresh herbs like cilantro, scallions, chives, dill, parsley, and basil.
