How to Make Egg Salad Sandwich Filling

  1. Gently place 3 large eggs in a small saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a rolling boil.
  2. Once boiling, remove from heat, cover, and let sit for 12-13 minutes. This method ensures perfectly cooked eggs every time.
  3. Immediately transfer the eggs to a bowl filled with ice water to stop the cooking process. Let them cool completely.
  4. Once cool, peel the eggs carefully. Separate the yolks from one egg and set aside.
  5. Roughly chop the whites of all three eggs. Alternatively, you can mash them slightly with a fork for a creamier texture.
  6. Add the reserved egg yolks to the chopped/mashed whites.
  7. Stir in 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  8. Mash with a fork until you reach your desired consistency. I prefer a slightly chunky texture!
  9. Spread about 1/3 of the egg salad mixture onto one slice of bread.
  10. Top with a leaf of lettuce and a slice of tomato.
  11. Repeat layers until all the filling is used.
