How many cups on a pound of egg salad?

* Egg salad is a mixture: It's made of eggs, mayonnaise, and often other ingredients (celery, onion, etc.). The proportions of these ingredients vary widely in different recipes.

* Density changes: The density of egg salad depends on the recipe. A recipe with more mayonnaise will be less dense than one with more chopped vegetables.

Instead of a direct conversion, consider these options:

1. Estimate based on your recipe: If you know the recipe, calculate the volume of each ingredient and add them together to get an approximate cup measurement.

2. Measure it out: The most accurate way is to simply make your egg salad and measure it in a liquid measuring cup.

3. Use a food scale: If you have a kitchen scale, weigh out the egg salad.
