Here’s a classic, simple egg salad sandwich recipe that’s creamy, flavorful, and quick to make:
Ingredients (makes 2 sandwiches)
- 4 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and chopped
- 2–3 tbsp mayonnaise (adjust to taste)
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard (optional, for a tangy kick)
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- 1–2 tsp chopped fresh herbs (like chives, parsley, or dill – optional)
- 4 slices of bread (white, whole wheat, or your choice)
- Optional: lettuce, tomato slices, or pickles
Instructions
- Prepare the eggs:
- Chop the hard-boiled eggs into small pieces.
- Make the egg salad:
- In a bowl, mix chopped eggs, mayonnaise, mustard, salt, pepper, and herbs (if using).
- Stir until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.
- Assemble the sandwich:
- Spread the egg salad evenly on 2 slices of bread.
- Top with optional lettuce, tomato, or pickles.
- Close the sandwich with the remaining bread slices.
- Serve:
- Cut diagonally and enjoy immediately, or chill for 10–15 minutes for a firmer texture.
If you want, I can also give a lighter version with Greek yogurt that’s creamy but lower in fat.
Do you want me to do that?
