Egg Salad Sandwich

I know, this sandwich looks just like the one I posted a couple of weeks ago!! Not much you can do to make an egg salad sandwich unique!! This recipe called for radicchio or arugula on the bread, but I didn't have any and was really hungry for dinner!! This recipe does not call for meat, and uses celery, mustard powder, and curry powder. I used some amazing white bread instead of the whole grain bread in the recipe. I will keep both of the egg salad recipes.

Egg Salad Sandwich

9 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and roughly chopped
1/3 c. mayonnaise, plus more for spreading on the bread
1 medium stalk celery, diced into 1/4-inch pieces
3/4 t. dry mustard powder, or 1 t. Dijon mustard
1/4 t. mild curry powder (optional)
8-12 slices whole-grain bread
1 small head radicchio or 1 small bunch arugula, washed and spun dry

1. Place eggs, mayonnaise, celery, mustard, and curry powder in a medium bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste. Mix gently until all ingredients are combined.
2. Spread one side of each slice of bread with mayonnaise. Line half of the slices with radicchio, and spread with an even layer of egg salad. Top with another slice of bread. Cut sandwiches in half and serve. Serves 4-6.

Extraordinary Egg Salad

This egg salad was yummy, which shouldn't surprise me because is it a recipe from Best Foods. I was so hungry that I didn't refrigerate it after I mixed it, I put too much mayonnaise in it and I forgot the pepper. I used Dijonnaise and cooked chicken rather than ham. I made this sandwich on some amazingly fresh sour dough bread and ate it (like I always do) with Cheetos!! Although I halved the recipe, there were no leftovers here ...

Extraordinary Egg Salad

1/2 c. chopped ham
2 T. sliced green onion
2 t. Dijon mustard
dash of pepper

2. Cover and chill. Makes about 2 cups.
