Egg Salad Annie...

...gator's got yer grannie.

I get the song "Polk Salad Annie" in my head whenever I make any type of salad. It's a curse. Here's the yummy egg salad I made for our sandwiches today:

3 hard-boiled eggs*, chopped
1 small red bell pepper, finely diced
3 mushrooms, finely diced
2 tsp whole-grain mustard
2/3 c cottage cheese
2 tbl miracle whip (or mayo would do, for wimps)

Mix 'em together. Eat.

*The boiling method I've found the most happiness with is to just cover the eggs with salted water, bring them to a boil, then cover and take off the heat. After 20 minutes, I plunge them in cold water. Perfeggto.
