Simple Egg Salad

kathyseppamakiApril 23, 2026June 11, 2026

I have always dreaded having to figure out what to eat for lunch. But one thing that I fix regularly, because I love it so much, is egg salad. I love how versatile this recipe has been for me. I can use it in a sandwich or wrap. But there are a lot of times when I don’t want a sandwich. So instead, I slice up some cucumbers or grab some crackers from the cupboard and dip those into the egg salad.

But honestly…I hate hard-boiling eggs. Whenever I would attempt to do that on the stovetop, I always struggled to get them right. There is one thing that has really helped (and cuts down the cooking time)! That is to cook them in the Instant Pot! Of course, I have a recipe for that! Here is my recipe for hard-boiled eggs in my Instant Pot! This recipe has been foolproof for me. The eggs come out perfectly every time, and it is so easy to get the shells off, too!

This is pretty much my summer go-to lunch, and it’s SO yummy! This makes enough egg salad for one person. Occasionally, I’ll double the recipe so that I have some for the next day too!

Hi, I’m Kathy!
I discovered I’m autistic and ADHD (AuDHD) in midlife—right in the thick of menopause and a full-on identity unraveling. Now, I’m on a journey to unmask, heal, and rediscover who I really am. This blog is where I share the messy, magical path of being neurodivergent in midlife, and finally coming home to myself.
