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.
What a great idea!

I’ll make me some egg salad every now and then but it ends up being sandwiches. Never had thought about using it as a dip. I will have to give that a try now that I’ve seen yours!

It’s because sometimes you just want to skip the bread. 😜
