Left over hard boiled eggs
If you’re like me, you have a lot of hard boiled eggs laying around. I thought I’d share my favorite egg salad recipe, it’s from good ol Martha, Martha, Martha (and it happens to be her favorite, too!).
Martha’s Favorite Egg Salad sandwiches:
- 10 hard-boiled egg whites
- 2 hard-boiled egg yolks
- 2 to 3 tablespoons light mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1/2 avocado, mashed, plus 1/2 avocado roughly chopped
- Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
- Boston lettuce, arugula, and tomato slices (optional)
- 12 white sandwich bread, lightly toasted
- Using a pastry blender or fork, mash together egg whites and yolks in a large bowl; carefully fold in avocado. Stir in mayonnaise, mustard, and lemon juice; season with salt and pepper.
- Place 6 slices of bread on a work surface. Evenly divide egg salad among bread slices. Add lettuce greens or tomato, if desired. Top with remaining 6 slices bread. Serve.
