Description
Easy Egg Salad Sandwiches are just what your race day menu needs! These dainty, delicious sandwiches are reminiscent of your childhood favorite.
Ingredients
For the egg salad:
- 8 eggs
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Major Grey chutney
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon white pepper
- ¼ cup finely minced green onion
For the sandwiches:
- 10 slices thin white bread
Instructions
Place the eggs in a large saucepan and cover with cold water so that the eggs are covered by an inch of water.
Bring the water to a boil over high heat and then immediately remove it from the heat.
Allow the eggs to stand in the hot water for 10-15 minutes.
Remove the eggs from the pan and allow to cool completely.
Peel and rinse the eggs.
Grate the eggs into a large glass mixing bowl.
Stir in the mayonnaise, mustard, chutney, onion, salt, and pepper until very well combined.
Spoon the egg salad into a container with a tight fitting lid and chill for at least 30 minutes.
Make the sandwiches:
If you are using regular sliced bread, flatten the bread using a rolling pin.
Lie 5 slices of the bread onto a flat surface.
Spread each of the 5 slices with the egg salad mixture. Don’t add too much or the sandwiches will be too messy.
Top with the remaining bread and gently press down.
Use a sharp knife to cut off the crusts and discard.
Slice each sandwich into 4 triangles or 3 fingers.
Serve cold.
