Italian Egg Salad

Why Egg Salad

My Grandma P made THE BEST egg salad I remember ever having!  Unfortunately, she was killed in a car accident when I was 11, so I never got to write down her recipe and of course, like many grandmas, she never did document it.  So, no matter how hard I’ve tried in my adult years, I can’t recreate it, so I’ve stopped trying!  Instead, I decided to come up with my own delicious egg salad.

We got an Instant Pot!

About 2-3 weeks ago, we finally joined the modern cooking age and got an Instant Pot.  One of the first things that I made was hard-boiled eggs (following A Slightly Better’s Wife guidance) and I’ve never looked back!  In fact, I said to T the other day that if all other meals fail from the Instant Pot, I’ve found my new favorite way to make hard-boiled eggs!  I made so many hard-boiled eggs that I needed something to do with them and that led to developing this egg salad recipe!
