Cooks' Note

Nutritious eggs and tomatoes team up to make this classic dish as good for you as it is good—and it tastes just as good now as when Mom made it. Chilling and firming the salad in the freezer is a lot faster than doing so in the refrigerator. For a bite-size hors d'oeuvre version, spoon the egg salad into 24 hollowed-out cherry tomatoes.
