Egg Salad Sandwich Recipe
Ingredients:
- 6 large eggs
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (optional)
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs (such as parsley or chives) (optional)
- 2 slices of your favorite bread (white, whole wheat, or sourdough)
- Lettuce or other greens (optional)
Instructions:
- Boil the Eggs: Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for about 9-10 minutes. Remove the eggs, cool them under cold running water, then peel and chop them.
- Prepare the Salad: In a medium bowl, mash the boiled eggs with a fork until they reach your desired texture (chunky or smooth). Add the mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper, and mix well. Stir in the fresh herbs, if using.
- Assemble the Sandwich: Spread the egg salad on one slice of bread. Add lettuce or any other desired toppings. Top with the second slice of bread.
- Serve: Cut the sandwich in half and enjoy!
Feel free to customize by adding extras like pickles, avocado, or even a little bit of paprika on top. Enjoy your egg salad sandwich!
