Easy Egg Salad Sandwich

When you are looking for the perfect summer sandwich does an egg salad sandwich come to mind? It does for us! This homemade egg salad sandwich recipe has crunch from pickles, creamy egg salad, and fresh dill. Perfect for a picnic or if you’re trying to use up some leftover egg salad.

Featured Ingredients

Eggs: you can’t have egg salad without eggs. Use your favorite brand of eggs and cook them to perfection. We prefer a hard-boiled egg that is cooked for about 8 minutes. Mayonnaise and Greek yogurt: the creaminess of the egg salad comes from both mayonnaise and Greek yogurt. We use both for a bit of balance. The flavor from the mayo and high-protein Greek yogurt for a bit of tartness. Mustard: a bit of mustard deepens the flavor of the egg salad. We used a mixture of different mustards. Sourdough bread: what bread you use does matter. We used bakery-style sourdough bread and toasted it. It adds a great crunch. Some people like when their bread is white and squishy. Feel free to use whatever type floats your boat. Fresh dill: don’t skip the fresh dill. It adds brightness and freshness to the egg salad sandwich. Sandwich fixings: what you have on your sandwich is up to you. We went with crunchy lettuce, celery, tomatoes, and pickles.

Storage

Store all of the ingredients for the egg salad sandwiches separately until right before serving them. Meal prep meal: If you are making these egg salad sandwiches for the week be sure to store all of the ingredients separately so that the bread doesn’t get soggy. Make it a wrap: Are you more of a wrap person? Replace the bread with a tortilla and wrap all of the sandwich ingredients in the tortilla.
