Like any other salad, people like to add different things; please feel free to doctor this as you see fit. If you are watching your carbs or are cutting out refined and processed foods, skip the bread and serve on lettuce leaves &#8211; either in little bundles in butter lettuce leaves, or down the middle of a romaine leaf.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-25394\" src=\"http:\/\/girlfriendscoffeehour.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Egg-Olive-Salad-Plate-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Egg Olive Salad Plate\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/girlfriendscoffeehour.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Egg-Olive-Salad-Plate-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/girlfriendscoffeehour.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Egg-Olive-Salad-Plate-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/girlfriendscoffeehour.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Egg-Olive-Salad-Plate.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\"><strong>Egg and Olive Salad<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Ingredients:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>4 hard-boiled eggs<\/li>\n<li>1\/4 cup green olives (preferably with pimentos)<\/li>\n<li>2 tablespoons mayonnaise<\/li>\n<li>1 teaspoon yellow mustard<\/li>\n<li>salt and pepper (optional)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Directions:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>In a mixing bowl, use two knives to roughly chop the eggs.
