  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives or green onions
  • 2 slices of bread your choice

Method
 

  1. Boil the Eggs: Start by hard-boiling your eggs. Place them in a pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook for about 10-12 minutes. Once done, cool them under cold water and peel.
  2. Mix the Salad: In a mixing bowl, roughly chop the hard-boiled eggs. Add in the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, salt, pepper, and chopped chives or green onions.
  3. Combine: Gently mix the ingredients together, being careful not to mash the eggs too much—you want those delicious chunks to shine!
  4. Assemble the Sandwich: Spread the egg salad mixture onto one slice of bread. Top with the second slice, press down gently, and slice in half.
  5. Serve: Enjoy immediately, or refrigerate for an hour to let the flavors meld!
