Store the eggs properly and you’ve got a real jump-start on delicious hard-boiled egg recipes. Everyone loves deviled eggs, and they make a great Easter brunch appetizer. But don’t overlook the humble egg salad. Here are 15 recipes so delicious, they’ll make you love Easter egg leftovers almost as much as you loved the decorated versions.

High Maintenance Egg Salad Sandwich
This fancy egg salad really goes the extra mile. It calls for an easy homemade mayo that makes ALL the difference. (via A Beautiful Plate)
Za’atar Egg Salad

Egg Salad Tartine and Spicy Dill Pickles
If you want to get fancy, call your open faced sandwich a *tartine* and dress it up for brunch. This recipe calls for a drizzle of homemade spicy mustard-mayo that really is gourmet-level good. (via Katherine in Brooklyn)
Chimichurri Egg Salad

Simply Perfect Egg Salad
This recipe should come with a warning. It calls for fancy-schmancy mascarpone cheese and truffle oil, and once you’ve tasted it you’ll never go back to ordinary egg salad again. (via The Owl With the Goblet)

When you’re making egg salad, bacon just seems a given, amiright? Bonus: These wraps are 100 percent gluten-free. (via Kim’s Cravings)

Avocado Egg Salad
Why eat ordinary egg salad when you can take it up a notch? This recipe calls for chopped green onions for zing, a dash of piri-piri for kick, and a smattering of chopped walnuts for crunch. (via The Healthy Foodie)

There’s a distinct lack of mayo weighing this sammy down. The binding hero here is a light ricotta cheese that whips up oh-so fluffy and yummy. (via Garlic Matters)
