Egg Salad Sandwich
Somehow egg salad is forgotten for most of the year until we have leftover hard boiled eggs. Every time I make it, I am reminded why I love it so much. Follow my easy tips to get the perfect, classic egg salad sandwich.
How to make egg salad
Funny story -when I was pregnant with one of my kids, Josh brought me an “egg salad sandwich” but it was a scrambled egg mixture and I got nauseated. Poor guy was just trying to be nice and helpful. Now I’m really clear when I talk about egg salad and which one I mean.
One of the classics, this recipe is so easy to make and is good to have in your back pocket for lunch.
- Start with hard boiled eggs
- Slice them up and mix with mayonnaise, salt and ground white pepper.
- Spread mix between two pieces of your favorite kind of bread.
- Enjoy!
For some variations:
- Add bacon
- Add slices of avocado (yum!!)
- Toast your bread
How long will egg salad last?
Assuming you store egg salad properly, it will last for 3-5 days in the fridge. What is the right way to store it? Use an airtight container or plastic wrap to make sure that no bacteria grows. Yep, I know – gross. And keep in mind that if you leave egg salad out for more than 2 hours, it isn’t safe to eat.
