I recently cleaned out my refrigerator only to become disgusted at the things I (unintentionally) let go to waste that had expired.   I loathe at the thought of throwing away food!  Never. Again.

I had a few eggs that were getting ready to expire.  My first thought was to make some plain ‘ole scrambled eggs.

Then I realized I had some fresh chives growing in my back yard that were about to bloom… they’re a perfect complement to this egg salad!

I’m all about simple.  All that’s in this recipe is mayonnaise, mustard, Old Bay Seasoning, and fresh chopped chives (and hard boiled eggs, of course).  You can also substitute fresh dill, parsley or rosemary for the chives.  Stir it all up in a bowl, then fold in coarsely chopped hard boiled eggs.

I know there are TONS of egg salad recipes out there… What do you add to your egg salad?
