Ingredients (small batch)

  • 6 hard-boiled eggs
  • ½ tsp mustard (yellow or Dijon)
  • 3 tbsp mayonnaise (Hellmann’s or any preferred brand)
  • 2 tbsp sweet relish
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Boil the eggs
    Cook eggs for about 9–10 minutes, then cool them in ice water. Peel once fully cooled.
  2. Chop the eggs
    Rough chop for chunky texture or mash slightly for creamier salad.
  3. Mix the base
    In a bowl, combine:
    • mayo
    • mustard
    • sweet relish
  4. Combine everything
    Add chopped eggs and gently mix until evenly coated.
  5. Season
    Add salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Chill
    Refrigerate for at least 30–60 minutes (you already did the right move 👍).
