- 6 eggs
- 1 dill pickle diced finely
- 2 green onions green parts only or chives
- 6 tbsp mayonnaise
- 2 tsp lemon juice
- ½-1 tsp dijon mustard
- salt and pepper to taste
- 4 tbsp salad cress sprouts or any greens of your choice
- 6 slices of bread
Boil the eggs, then immediately put them in cold water and cool. I cook my eggs in Instant Pot at high pressure for 5 minutes, then use manual pressure release. You can do that or use your favourite method.
Peel the eggs and chop them. I prefer texture in my egg salad, so I don’t chop them too finely. Then dice the dill pickle and slice the green onions. If you are using fresh dill, add it now as well.
Mix the mayonnaise with the lemon juice and Dijon mustard. Add the salad dressing to the egg mixture and mix gently. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Spread the egg salad between two slices of bread with salad cress sprouts or lettuce.
