Deviled Egg Salad Sandwiches

Submitted by kittycatmom

"I really like egg salad sandwiches. It was the first sandwich "filling" I learned how to make. I've tried many recipes, this is one of my favorites! Update -- YIKES! I completely forgot to add an ingredient! Corrected recipe to add 2 Tablespoons minced green onion."

 

• Ready In: 10mins
• Ingredients: 8
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 8 slices bread
• 8 hard-cooked eggs, finely chopped
• 1 stalk celery, finely chopped
• 1⁄3 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard
• 2 teaspoons cider vinegar
• 2 tablespoons green onions, minced
• salt and pepper

directions

1. Place eggs,celery and green onion in a mixing bowl. In a small bowl, stir together mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, salt and pepper.
2. Pour mayonnaise mixture over eggs and celery and toss gently to combine.
3. Place about 1/2 cup on each of four slices of bread and top with remaining four slices of bread.
4. Tips: if desired, add a lettuce leaf to each sandwich. Also, for added flavor, add one jar (2 ounces) pimiento, drained or 2 tablespoons chopped, drained roasted red pepper to the egg salad; prepare as directed. Also great with a slice of cheese.

This has all the components that we have come to love and devour on the farm! We loved/love the crunch of celery, so instead of making this finely chopped, I left it as a big crunch (chopped) and it was truly delicious! I also love the use of yellow mustard and the cider vinegar just a refreshing snap. Instead of the 1/3 cup of low-fat mayo, I used full fat, but reduced to amount to 3 tablespoons and it was perfect. Thanks for posting such a delicious sammy!

A simple and delicious egg salad. Thanks for sharing. Made for What's on the Menu tag.

I basically use this recipe for the mustard & mayo ratio. It has always been hard for me to find the right ratio & this one hits it! I use Earth Balance mindful mayo or kraft mayo w/ olive oil & both taste great.

How is this different than egg salad?

I scaled this back for 2 serves and very generous ones I will say and think you could comfortably do 3 and at a pinch 4 especially if you were puting other fillings into the sandwich. Thank you kittycatmom for a lovely recipe that the DM and I enjoyed for lunch using wholemeal/wholegrain bread and to Debbwl for making sandwiches the tag in Everyday A Holiday tag game.
