Nummy egg salad!! We didn't add celery. Made for I Recommend.

Egg salad is one of DH's favorites and he loved this sandwich. I did use the celery seed, only the green onion, and lettuce instead of spinach. Used white bread for his sandwich and sour dough for mine which was very tasty. Will be making this often! Made and reviewed for Kittencal's Recipe Tag Game.

Great sandwich, tasty and filling! I don't care for onions so left them out and just added a bit more celery. I loved the salty addition of the bacon. Thanks for posting the recipe! Made for ZWT6, Zwizzle Chicks

Quite tasty! I used celery seed as I was out of celery and didn't use the green onion cuz I was out of that too :( Very good with the lettuce too. Thanks for posting! Made for ZWT6 - GREAT BRITAIN Region and the Queens of Quisine!
