What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Cheerful Choices: Egg Salad Chip Dip! I learned a long time ago that egg salad makes a wonderful, light, and satisfying snack when unexpected guests stop by. At the time I served it with celery sticks, chicken-flavored crackers, and salty potato chips. I remember how awed my girlfriend was as she practically inhaled one scoop after another. She simply couldn’t believe egg salad was a finger food instead of a midday meal layered between two pieces of sandwich bread. It’s amazing what you can serve on a budget.
EGG SALAD CHIP DIP
Ingredients:
4 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and coarsely chopped
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 green onions, snipped
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/8 teaspoon cracked black pepper
Paprika, for garnish
Instructions:
In a mixing bowl, mash the hard-boiled eggs, using a fork. Fold in mayonnaise, green onion snips, sea salt, and cracked black pepper. Stir until well blended. Transfer to a serving dish. Garnish with a sprinkling of paprika. Refrigerate for one hour. Serve with lettuce leaves or sour cream and onion potato chips.
I love egg salad.

Did you know it’s okay to eat potato chips as long as lettuce is in the picture? 😜🍃🤣

Very much so, especially with the big eggs and perhaps a few more bits like baby tomatoes on the vine, and continental spring onions/ big heads!

The potato chips are the perfect scoop for this lovely dip. I’m pretty sure you might have added chips to that egg salad sandwich…😉
