How to Make Old Fashioned Egg Salad Sandwich

  1. Place 2 large eggs in a small saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 6-8 minutes. Immediately transfer eggs to an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
  2. Once cool enough to handle, peel the eggs and roughly chop them. Place the chopped eggs in a medium bowl.
  3. Add 1/4 cup mayonnaise and 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion to the bowl with the eggs.
  4. Gently mix all ingredients until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Spread the egg salad evenly onto two slices of your favorite bread. Add any desired toppings (lettuce, tomato, etc.) and enjoy!
