Egg Salad Express
Delicious, flavorful egg salad without the slicing and dicing —
how wonderful! A quick and tasty lunch that parents and kids will
thoroughly enjoy.
2 hard-boiled eggs
1 stalk celery
slice of onion (about 1/8 cup)
1-2 Tbs. mayonnaise
pinch of mustard powder (optional)
Before you begin … Break the celery stalks in half and pull to
remove as much of the celery string as possible.
Then … Add the ingredients in the order they appear to the Short
Cup and twist on the Cross Blade.
Pulse using the quick Pulse technique … just press down on the
cup and release the pressure immediately, pause and let the
ingredients settle, than quickly Pulse again until you’ve reached a
good consistency.
And serve.
Spice things up by adding a little sweet pickle relish, or add a
dab of Dijon mustard to your ingredients
before you blend. Sprinkle a little paprika
over the top and grab yourself a napkin
because this sandwich isn’t going to be
around long enough to touch the plate!
Fat-Free version. Use
mustard and a splash of
chicken or veggie broth
instead of mayonnaise for a tasty,
fat-free version.

Even the Magic Bullet can’t defy the laws of physics, so if
you’ve overloaded the cup, or if your chicken salad ingredients
are too dense for the ingredients at the top of the cup to reach
the blade, we recommend you try the Shake or Tap techniques on
Page 18 and 19. If it’s really thick, scoop out the finished chicken
salad that has accumulated at the bottom, put it in a bowl, then
continue Pulsing the remaining ingredients. Once everything is
chopped, you can add it all back together in the cup and give it a
quick Pulse to mix everything together.
Chicken salad is very versatile. Feel free to add other things
into your list of ingredients. Try sprinkling in a little nutmeg or
cinnamon. Serve on toast, or add a scoop on top of a mixed
green salad. Have you ever seen a more satisfying way to eat
leftovers? Bon appetit!
Fat-Free version. Use fat-free chicken broth and fat-free
ranch dressing, or fat-free plain yogurt, instead of mayonnaise
for a zesty fat-free lunch or dinner.
Stuffed tomatoes or peppers. Hollow out the inside of a tomato or
pepper and fill with chicken salad ... a bread-free, delicious and
attractive lunch.
To create Mick’s Curry Chicken Salad, skip the apples and walnuts
and add a dash or two of curry powder.
