Egg salad is a classic, historical sandwich spread.
The first known printed recipe for egg salad came in 1896 inside a Boston School of Cooking book, also known as a Fannie Farmer (the author) book.

Egg salad can be served at tea time or other afternoon gatherings. It’s the perfect meatless sandwich for a light lunch or picnic.
It’s also very easy to make. If you can boil an egg, you can make egg salad.

I’ve made egg salad so much I no longer measure things. It’s the same basic set of ingredients that I combine until it looks right. I’ve tried to measure things out for this recipe, but it really is up to you. If you like your egg salad drier, use less mayo. More sweet, add more sweet relish.
Enjoy!
