🧂 Ingredients:
-
6 large eggs
-
3 tbsp mayonnaise
-
1 tsp yellow mustard (or Dijon mustard)
-
1 tbsp finely chopped green onions or chives
-
Salt and black pepper, to taste
-
A pinch of paprika (optional)
-
4 slices of bread (white, whole wheat, or your favorite kind)
-
Lettuce leaves or spinach (optional, for serving)
👩🍳 Instructions:
-
Boil the eggs: Place eggs in a saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover and turn off the heat. Let sit for 10–12 minutes.
-
Cool and peel: Drain and cool the eggs in ice water, then peel and chop them finely.
-
Make the salad: In a bowl, mix chopped eggs with mayonnaise, mustard, green onions, salt, pepper, and paprika (if using). Stir until creamy and well blended.
-
Assemble the sandwich: Spread egg salad evenly over one slice of bread, top with lettuce if desired, and cover with the second slice.
-
Serve: Cut in half and enjoy immediately — or chill for a few minutes for the best texture.
🍽️ Serving Ideas:
Serve with a side of chips, fresh fruit, or a small salad for a quick, balanced meal.
