Husband: "Umm, you know, an egg salad sandwich sounds pretty good."
Me: "...."
Yep, it's a first. I have never made an egg salad sandwich. Last week when I was in Bellevue, I had two bites of one and couldn't finish it. It was riddled with overpowering onions and way too much mayo. Growing up we never ate them, so I really had nothing to go off of...
Me: "Umm, what is in an egg salad sandwich exactly?"
Husband: "Mayo, mustard, and eggs."
Me: "Oh..."
So I took off to the kitchen to try my hand at this feat. I boiled 6 eggs until the yolks were hard and combined them with mustard and mayo. It was missing something, or rather a lot of things. It was just TOO plain.. So I fancied it up a bit...or rather a lot...
Egg Salad Sandwiches
Ingredients:
- 6 hard boiled eggs
- 1 cup Mayonaise
- teaspoon of dill weed
- teaspoon of garlic salt
- fresh ground pepper (to your liking)
- handful of dried onion flakes (approx. 1/8 cup)
- small squirt (about 1 tablespoon) yellow mustard
- Wheat bread
Directions:
- In a bowl, gently mix all ingredients, then apply to bread.
Very difficult recipe...I know. This recipe yields about 4-5 sandwiches, depending on how much egg salad you want on your bread.
Glad it's only taken me 27 years to accomplish this great task...
