Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 0.33 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 stalk (finely diced) celery
- 2 tablespoons (finely chopped) red onion
- 1 tablespoon (finely chopped) fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 leaves lettuce (optional)
- 4 slices bread of choice
Directions
Step 1
Place the eggs in a medium saucepan and cover them with cold water. Ensure the water level is about 1 inch above the eggs.
Step 2
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, remove the pan from the heat, cover it with a lid, and let the eggs sit for 10 minutes.
Step 3
After 10 minutes, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool for about 5 minutes. This makes peeling easier.
Step 4
Peel the cooled eggs and place them in a mixing bowl. Use a fork to mash the eggs into small chunks, leaving some texture.
Step 5
Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, celery, red onion, parsley, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Mix until well combined.
Step 6
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt or pepper to preference.
Step 7
Toast the bread slices if desired. Lay a leaf of lettuce on one side of each sandwich (optional).
Step 8
Spoon the egg salad mixture evenly onto two slices of bread. Top with the remaining slices of bread to complete the sandwiches.
Step 9
Cut each sandwich in half and serve immediately. Enjoy your delicious Dee's Egg Salad Sandwich!
