I am loving all things light and tasty with simple ingredients. I have a few salad sandwich recipes that are great for group gatherings- try Avocado Chicken Salad, Cashew Chicken Salad or Chicken Caesar salad Wraps. They’re all so tasty!
How to Make the Best Egg Salad Sandwich
When I think of egg salad sandwiches I always think about bridal showers, baby showers, springtime and Easter. All the great events that are warm, bright, and bring everyone together! I love the simplicity of this classic egg salad, made with only a few ingredients. Boiled eggs, mayonnaise, a touch of a mustard and herbs like dill and chives to add that extra touch of perfection. The flavor is so good, you might just want to eat it on its own! (Guilty!) This really is the best egg salad recipe that I’ve tried, and it’s so easy to make. A win-win! Its herby, savory flavor and creamy texture will have everyone raving. Who knew a classic potluck dish could be so good? This egg salad recipe is anything but boring!
Ingredient List
Just a few ingredients for this egg salad recipe! Nothing fancy, just a few pantry staples that will give the salad the best flavor and texture. See the recipe card below for all measurements.
Eggs: The base of your egg salad. This recipe calls for 8 large eggs, which will be boiled, peeled, and chopped. If you need a tutorial on how to hard boil your eggs easily, try this one! It uses the air fryer to make prep a breeze. Mayonnaise: Makes everything smooth and also adds creaminess. If you’re not a fan of mayo, you can also use plain Greek yogurt, sour cream, or hummus. Dill: Fresh dill adds a bright, herby flavor. Since this egg salad recipe doesn’t use a ton of ingredients, you’ll want to make sure you don’t skip the herbs. Without them, your salad may turn out a little bland. Chives: Another fresh herb that adds a subtle oniony flavor. Dijon Mustard: For tangy, delicious flavor. Salt and Pepper: Make everything taste better! Add to taste.
