Deluxe Egg Salad

"This wonderful salad is an adaptation of a recipe I think originated with Moosewood, or the Cabbagetown Cafe. That one was handed to me and I adapted it further, to this one."

  1. Absolutely delightful! Thanks for a great recipe! We really enjoyed the flavors and unique texture of the potatoes and almods!
     
  2. Loved this salad especially the addition of the nuts, and also like the potato egg combination. I have made this twice in the past week for 2 barbecues it proved very popular. I used Best Foods mayo.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am a working artist with a continuing culinary practice in special recipe design- I like to make jams and jellies, salsa and pasta sauce from locally sourced or personally grown produce. At the local farmer's market my friend and I sell muffins we make and also seeds from Seed Savers Exchange, which takes seriously the preservation and protection of heirloom varieties from around the world. I have self-published a children's book I illustrated and am working on a followup book with the author that continues the story of "Sophie, Circus Mouse", the first title. The illustration above is one I created for a local orchard's street sign.
