Tomato and Egg Salad

Honestly I don't think I'd make it again. I found that the hard boiled eggs didn't work with this. I did like the dressing, though. It didn't help that the tomatoes weren't all that good and it was suggested by a friend that I may have over did the olive oil, but I didn't like the texture. I gave her the recipe over the phone and she added a bunch of ingredients to hers and said when I caller her back that it was pretty good. I also put cheese in mine. I think I'd leave out the eggs and replace them with mushrooms and maybe some other veggies, because the dressing is really good. It could be put over spinach leaves and mushrooms, maybe broccoli and cauliflower. I can think of quite a few things that would be better than hard boiled eggs.

Just by the ingredient list I have to agree. Not everything is a winner - better luck next time. =]

Thank you. :-)

That recipe looks positively medieval in its lack of quantities. "First, make the dressing." Are they going for a cooking competition technical challenge?

That said, did you put the egg yolks in the dressing? In the proper proportions it does look like it would be good.

I thought it would be good too, but I did not like the texture of the hard boiled eggs in it. I did what it said and stirred it up so the yolks would break down. I would definitely use the dressing part again, just not with hard boiled eggs in it. I need to get ingredients for pasta salad and then pour that dressing on top of it. I have no idea why there weren't measurements. I wondered that too. The flavors just looked good to me.
