The egg salad sandwich is a classic comfort food, often associated with American cuisine. Made with a creamy mixture of hard-boiled eggs, mayonnaise, mustard, and seasonings, the salad rests between slices of soft bread, typically white, wheat, or rye. Optional ingredients like celery, onion, or pickle relish add texture and flavor. Nutritionally, eggs provide high-quality protein, vitamins like B12, and essential minerals such as selenium. However, mayonnaise can be calorie-dense and high in fat, making portion control important for those monitoring their diet. Choosing whole-grain bread boosts fiber content, supporting digestion and heart health. While indulgently rich and satisfying, the egg salad sandwich can be a balanced meal when paired with fresh vegetables or a light side.
