Ingredients
8 large eggs
3 tablespoons of Mayonnaise
2 tablespoons of Yellow Mustard
1/4 teaspoon of Salt
1/4 teaspoon of Black Pepper
Instructions
Egg Preparation
The first thing you will need to do is boil your eggs.
Place eggs in a large stock pot half full of water. The boil times will vary, but once the water starts to boil, I set my timer for 10 minutes. This process can also be done in an instant pot.
Remove from the burner and pour water out. Fill the pot back up with cold water or ice water. Once the eggs have cooled, you want to peel them and then chop the eggs up.
Making Egg Salad
Cut eggs in half. Remove the yolk and add to a large bowl.
Using a fork, break up the egg yolks
Add in mayonnaise and yellow mustard.
Mix all ingredients well until all are incorporated.
Chop up egg whites and add to the bowl.
Add salt and black pepper.
Mix all ingredients until well incorporated.

Cafe du Monde from New Orleans of course

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

@@jeffduvall737 I’ve never tried it. I will have to see how good it is. Thanks 🙏

[@Djwhynotlove]

Damn this looks good ❤ I put my bread in the toaster before hand which helps. If you plan to take it for lunch, let the bread cool down before you put them by themselves in a ziploc bag. I like these simple recipes

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

I love it on toast as well. Same for tuna salad. I almost always eat it on toast.

[@bustertim5333]

That looks so good. Onions would be good in it too thank you Ronnie

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Yes some put onions in too! Make it your own! Thanks buddy. I appreciate it.

[@johnnysmall4206]

I like to add bread & butter pickle juice to mine.

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Sounds good too!

[@EssayonsFG]

Great looking recipe, Ronnie.

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Thanks so much Rob!

[@DeanFamilyAcres]

Not a big fan of egg salad, but have tried it at Augusta National at the Masters. Wasn't too bad.

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

We love it. I do believe it is a love-it-or-hate-it type thing. I would love to go there to the Masters though. So cool.

[@janetparekh679]

I love egg salad and duke mayo is my favorite 👍

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Yes 🙌 Got to have that Dukes!! Haha Thanks.

[@Sheila5858.]

Just like my mom used to make

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Thanks so much! Brings back memories for me too.

[@easybackyardbbq]

Hearing a hymn always take me back to my grandfather. He led me to the Lord as kid. These sandwiches look amazing. Love a good egg salad or a good chicken or pimento sandwich. Thanks Ronnie and Blessings to you and your family

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

I can remember my mom signing gospel music on a Sunday morning while making breakfast. Those memories are dear to us brother. Cherish them, I’m glad you know where you’re going too! Amen. Thanks buddy.

[@LifewithBlindaandChuck]

I like egg salad every now and then. Thinking of food from my childhood, I always was fond when the preacher would eat lunch with us on Sunday. Always had mom’s best. Which she was a great cook every day of the week. 😁

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

I love that memory Chuck and I agree. I always loved when someone came home from church to eat with us, especially when the pastor would. Thanks for sharing that Chuck.

[@tammieloftis2607]

Looks delicious

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Thanks so much!

[@klc317]

Looks great! I need to make some, been awhile since I thought about it. IMO it's gotta have a little bit of cayenne pepper mixed in for a little heat. Good stuff.

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

I could do some cayenne! I think a little old bay would be awesome in it as well! Thanks for your comment.

[@waltonboys9438]

Ronnie great video love deviled eggs not really a egg salad person however I love the memories you have with it though ❤. I remember when Michael Jackson performed Billie Jean on the Grammys and my dad was attempting to dance like him 😂😂😂 and he kicked his self in the nose 😂😂😂 we laughed for days. I really miss him 😢 but I’m very grateful to have so many memories to hold onto ❤

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Haha that is a awesome memory! I have several about my dad like that too. Thank you so much for sharing that! That’s special.

[@HRHBoof]

As a kid, we liked to snack on peanut butter & mayo sandwiches. So often, when I'm using mayo, I'll think back to those good times.

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Good memories

[@easybackyardbbq]

Love the merchandise you got up for sale. Looks good

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

I got to sit down one day and fix it. Some reason the link is broken but thanks buddy. I appreciate it!

[@AuLily1]

Macaroni salad was something that I ate a lot of it as a child growing up in south Florida. We weren't well to do in my early life, and it was cheap. I remember sneezing while eating it and a whole elbow noodle flew out my nose. It hurt. I was put off of macaroni salad for decades after that, aside from just being tired of it. I'm in my early 60s and have started eating macaroni salad again.

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Haha I bet so! I never was a big fan of it but the wife loves it!

[@jeffduvall737]

Nailed it brother

[@jeffduvall737]

It Texas we add minced onion, celery, tsp of Dijon mustard, and 2 tbsp of sweet relish

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Thanks so much!

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

I like the addition of the Dijon!

[@swampstalkeroutdoors]

That’s a great looking thumbnail brother and the sandwich looks great as well! Now I know who is making all the money , that’s a $80 lunch now days😜 Great job on the video brother.

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Haha man you crazy lol. I paid 2 bucks for this dz of eggs! Thanks buddy! I appreciate it.

[@swampstalkeroutdoors]

🤣

[@bluehondaccord]

You should have put in a disclaimer, *Only for those who can afford eggs* Take care ~ENC~

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Yeah, you are not lying. lol

[@marshallbryan3715]

Great review. Made it last night and the only change was added 1/2 tsp of crushed red pepper. Thank you.

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

@@marshallbryan3715 I bet that was awesome! Nothing like adding a little heat. Thanks for sharing.

[@johnnysmall4206]

Is that a Calamus knife?

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

I think it’s actually a Pampered Chef knife.
