Egg Salad Sandwich Recipe
Ingredients
- For the Egg Salad:
- 6 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and chopped
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp chopped chives (plus more for garnish)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- For the Sandwich:
- 2 slices of your favorite bread (white, whole wheat, or toasted)
- Optional: lettuce or tomato slices for extra crunch
Instructions
- Prepare the Egg Salad:
- In a large bowl, mash the chopped hard-boiled eggs with a fork until they reach your desired texture (some people like it chunky, others prefer smooth).
- Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and chopped chives. Mix everything together until smooth and well combined.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Feel free to adjust the mayo or mustard for creaminess and tanginess, depending on your preference.
- Assemble the Sandwich:
- Take two slices of bread. If you like toasted bread, now’s the time to toast it!
- Spread a generous amount of the egg salad mixture on one slice of bread.
- Optional: Add a few leaves of lettuce or a slice of tomato for extra crunch and freshness.
- Top with the second slice of bread.
- Serve:
- Cut the sandwich in half (diagonally for that classic feel) and garnish with extra chopped chives if you like.
- Enjoy!
