Egg Salad

Egg Salad is a quick meal.  It's full of protein & is a great thing on a hot summer night.  Besides the fact that you can make it up ahead of time so that dinnertime is a snap, it also packs great for lunch the next day.  

And see that pretty jade green bowl in the picture?  It was originally part of a set of 3 that my mom bought in a hardware store in East Texas.  She thinks she paid about $5 for the set in 1968.  Unfortunately, 1 of them was broken somewhere along the way but I am so blessed that she gave me the other 2 & I cherish them so much! 

Serve this Egg Salad on a bed of Arugula drizzled with olive oil & fresh lemon juice or serve it on these paleo wraps.
