What To Do With All Those Hardboiled Eggs?

Easter is this weekend, which means that in addition consuming way too many jelly beans, I will also have a ton of hard boiled eggs leftover.

I love letting my kids color the eggs but then come Monday, those pretty pastel eggs just stare at me from the fridge begging to be put to good use.

Curry Egg Salad Recipe

I love a good egg salad. It’s just so classic and comforting.

I wanted to take classic egg salad and update it a little bit. So, I swapped out greek yogurt for mayonnaise and added curry powder to kick it up a bit.

The end result – a creamy egg salad with a bit of a mediterranean kick.
