Basic Egg Salad

adapted by There's Always Thyme to Cook

8 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and chopped

salt and pepper, to taste

1/4 cup Hellman's mayonnaise (more or less depending how much you like mayo!)

In a medium bowl mix all ingredients. Add any optional ingredients you want... celery, dry mustard, dill, olives, relish, whatever you like, until well blended. Cover and chill.

Notes: I like plain basic egg salad, no add-ins! but I do occasionally add sauteed mushrooms and onions to basic egg salad. It's fantastic!
