Easter egg salad with capers

I can only eat one or two Easter eggs. Ohh there is a an upside to those left over gem colored eggs. Egg salad feels even more special with specks of dye peeking out. I think so anyway. I have found that peeling the eggs in ice water seems to help them come off better. I bought a piece of crap egg slicer but it died a few months ago. Ever since I have been using a wire pastry cutter to break up the eggs. I love to add celery, green onion, spicy stone ground mustard, mayonnaise (homemade or Hellmann’s), ground pepper and salt. Melba toast adds crunch while letting the eggs sing. I like to add some capers for a briny and bright punch.
