- Fill a large pot with enough water that will cover eggs, and add vinegar (prevents eggs that crack from falling apart and messing up the water). When water is boiling, add eggs. Boil for 12 minutes.
- While the eggs are boiling, add water and ice to a bowl for cooling off the eggs. Use about one tray of ice cubes.
- When eggs are done, scoop then out with a slotted spoon and place them into the ice water. Let chill until they are room temperature or colder, about 15 minutes. Add more ice cubes or more cold water if the ice all melts.
- While eggs are chilling, prepare the celery and green onions.
- When eggs are chilled, peel them. You can either chop the eggs then put them in a bowl, or you can put the whole eggs in the bowl and coarsely chop them with a fork.
- Add celery, green onions, mayonnaise, spices and mustard, if using. Gently mix to evenly blend.

Serve on a fresh salad, gluten free buns or bread with some Old Fashioned Chicken Soup. In a sandwich, this is really nice with a leaf of crispy lettuce and some extra mayo.
This will keep in a well sealed container in the fridge for 2 days max.
Enjoy!
Note: Use all organic ingredients. Ensure all the dried spices are labeled certified gluten free and any packaged or jarred items are labeled gluten free.
