Egg Salad

By cheeserohan

Ingredients

• 4 c peeled and chopped hard-boiled eggs
• 1/2 c crumbled cooked bacon
• 1 tbs chopped parsley
• 1/4 c grated carrots
• 4 oz cream cheese
• 1/4 c sour cream
• 1/2 c mayonnaise
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp onion powder
• salt to taste
• freshly ground black pepper to taste

Preparation

Step 1

Peel and chop the hard-boiled eggs. Add the crumbled bacon, the parsley and the grated carrots. Mix well. Put the cream cheese in a small bowl and microwave for 30 seconds on High to soften it. If it can be easily stirred with a fork, add the sour cream and mayonnaise and mix well. If the cream cheese is still too solid, give it another 10 seconds or so before you add the other ingredients. Stir in the garlic powder and onion powder. Add the cream cheese mixture to the bowl with the eggs and stir it all up. Add salt and freshly ground pepper to taste and chill, until ready to serve. Serve by itself on a lettuce leaf, as filling in a sandwich or stuffed in cream puffs. Makes approximately a dozen egg salad sandwiches.
