You'll need to start with some hard-cooked eggs.  These were leftover Easter eggs that I baked in the oven.  

The easiest and least messy way I know of to chop a lot of hard cooked eggs is to put them in a large bowl and go at them with a pastry blender.

Then add the mayonnaise mixture that was whisked together in a separate bowl to ensure all the ingredients are evenly disbursed.  Toss everything together until well combined.  

Now it's ready to go into sandwiches or wraps, schmear on toast points, or serve a on a bed of salad greens.
