  • 1/2-1 tsp This is an affiliate link.dijon mustard
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 tbsp salad cress sprouts or any greens of your choice
  • 6 slices of bread

Instructions

  • 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.
