Chop the spring onions (green onions) into small pieces. I use the white parts and some of the green parts.

I have also used fresh chives from the garden. Nothing beats fresh from the garden.

I learned how to peel eggs from the Egg Marketing board. After gently rolling the hard boiled egg on the counter to crack the shell, I use the back of a spoon to lift the shell away from the egg. Works a treat.

Mix with mayonaise, (about 1 tbsp per egg). Don’t forget to add the chopped spring onions or chives. You can also add seasoning to taste and some chopped celery. I prefer Hellmans but the choice is yours.
