Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Place the 4 eggs in a small pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Cook for 8 minutes, then drain and cool under cold water.

  2. Step 2

    Cut the 1 head of broccoli into small florets. Steam or boil in salted water until bright green and just tender, about 3 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water.

  3. Step 3

    Peel and chop the boiled eggs. In a large bowl, combine the broccoli, eggs, and 1 cup corn kernels.

  4. Step 4

    In a small bowl, whisk together the 3 tbsp mayonnaise, 1 tbsp lemon juice, and 0.5 tsp salt. Pour over the salad and toss gently to coat.

  5. Step 5

    Serve chilled or at room temperature.
