I think this is an amazing way to do egg salad! We often get stuck in a foodie rut, repeating our usual quick go to s and forget to try new flavors. This one is a keeper for sure! The turmeric is so beneficial, I try to make a nice variety of different curried dishes just for that benefit alone! This dish will not disappoint any curry lover's pallet! It adds a nice dimension of flavor to an already favorite in our house! And if you've never tried a cool curried dish, now is the time to start!
