This is the best egg salad I've ever had. Just make sure you use decent ingredients (especially the mustard and pesto) and you'll be set.

My family loved this egg salad! I didn't use the red onion, and we didn't think it needed tomato. I will definitely make it again.

Did not taste good. Almost has a curry flavor even though there was none in the recipe. Even after a mint cookie I could not get rid of the taste.
