- 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
- Salt and pepper, to taste
For Serving
- 8 slices sandwich bread
- Lettuce (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Egg Salad: Mash the peeled hard-boiled eggs in a mixing bowl until broken down into small pieces. Add yellow mustard, mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt), salt, and pepper. Mix everything thoroughly until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed to your preference.
- Assemble the Sandwiches: Take two slices of sandwich bread and spread a generous spoonful of the egg salad mixture on one slice. Top with lettuce if desired, then cover with the other slice of bread to form a sandwich. Repeat to make about 4 sandwiches.
