About Egg salad

Egg salad is a classic dish made from chopped hard-boiled eggs, mayonnaise, mustard, and often seasonings like salt, pepper, and fresh herbs. Common additions include celery, onions, or pickles for extra crunch and flavor. Originating in European and American cuisines, egg salad is often enjoyed as a sandwich filling or a side dish. Rich in protein, eggs provide essential nutrients such as vitamins D and B12, choline, and healthy fats. The mayonnaise, while creamy and flavorful, can contribute significant calories and fat depending on the amount used. Opting for lighter versions or alternatives can make egg salad a more heart-healthy choice. This versatile dish offers a balance of indulgence and nutrition, making it a popular option for picnics, quick lunches, or as part of a high-protein meal plan.
