Notes

    • If three hard boiled eggs is too much, start with two instead.
    • Grating the eggs is optional, but I love how fast and easy it is as opposed to chopping, and I like the texture of the smaller pieces of egg.
    • Start with 3/4 teaspoon of sweet pickle relish, and add more if desired, up to 1.5 Tablespoons.
    • Do the same with the mayo. Start with 2 Tablespoons, and add more up to 3 Tablespoons total.
