Southern-Style Egg Salad

The classic egg salad recipe that can be eaten plain with a fork, turned into a delicious sandwich or my avocado egg salad recipe is such a reader favorite but i thought i'd simplify things even further today i love that i can grab it from the fridge to eat without any cooking or prep.

Recipe Summary Southern-Style Egg Salad

Southern egg salad, primarily used for sandwiches. Serve on fresh bread of your choice. My wife likes to make double-decker sandwiches (utilizing whole wheat bread for the center slice) with pimento cheese on the other half. Trim the edges and cut into 2 or 3 pieces. Great for tailgating.
