I call this egg “salad” because I don’t know what else to call it, and calling it egg “spread” just doesn’t sound appetizing, even though it’s great spread on bread as a snack or an appetizer.
But this recipe is just so simple and the results are disproportionately delicious. The most time-consuming part of this recipe is boiling eggs. Really. Just try it and you’ll see what I mean.  Use your favorite sharper cheese, but any cheese would probably work.

 

Ingredients:
6 eggs
1-1.5 TB of mayo
3 cloves of garlic (finely minced, less if you’re not a garlic enthusiast)
1/3 cup of grated cheese (any sharper cheese is great here, so mozzarella is out, but I used goat’s milk mozzarella and it worked well)

Steps:
1. Boil eggs and then smash them with a fork (or one of those egg slicer thingies).
2. Add finely minced garlic and mayo and mix to combine. You want it to just come together and not be goopy.
3. Add cheese and combine again.
