CQ's Basil Tarragon Egg Salad


CQ is the person who will take sausage out of its casing, mix it up with some ingredients and then restuff them back.  So you know that stuffing the yolks back into boiled eggs is right up her alley.

CQ doesn't measure anything when she cooks so this is the best recipe I could get from her.  It was really yummy.  I think I ate 3 eggs by myself.
