Egg Salad Sandwich Recipe
Ingredients:
- 6 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and chopped
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon mustard
- 1/4 cup finely chopped celery
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped green onions
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Lettuce leaves (optional)
- 8 slices of bread (white or whole grain)
Instructions:
- Combine Ingredients:
In a medium-sized bowl, mix the chopped eggs, mayonnaise, mustard, celery, and green onions. Stir until well combined. Season with salt and pepper according to your taste. - Prepare Sandwich:
Lay out four slices of bread, and if desired, place a lettuce leaf on each. Divide the egg salad evenly among these slices, spreading it out to the edges. - Assemble:
Top each with another slice of bread. Press down gently to ensure the sandwich holds together. - Serve:
Cut each sandwich into halves or quarters, whichever you prefer. Serve immediately or wrap for a picnic or a quick grab-and-go lunch.
Tips:
- For a lighter version, substitute mayonnaise with Greek yogurt or a low-fat mayo alternative.
- Add a dash of paprika or curry powder for a flavor twist.
- Fresh dill or chopped pickles can be added to the egg salad for extra zest.
