This Egg Salad dish is easy and quick to prepare and when a few spices are added to enhance the taste, the simplicity of the dish turns into something exquisite.
This is one of those way too easy recipes, but I’ll share it with you anyway, just in case you’re in a bind and need to prepare a last minute lunch someday.
Buen provecho!

Love this little twist on the traditional egg mayonnaise salad. Cumin is such a versatile spice. It never ceases to surprise me!

Oh, yes! This is something I would definitely love, as apart from the eggs I love cumin and cilantro but too many eggs and mayo for my age, as I explain in my last post as well.
