Egg salad for breakfast? Yummy comfort food any time.
Egg Salad
- Four eggs, hard boiled (see notes for an easy, foolproof way to do this)
- Four slices whole wheat bread
- 1T mayonnaise
- 1T plain yogurt (optional)
Night before:
Hard boil eggs, then refrigerate. Cook more than you need and keep in the refrigerator for snacks, to mix with tuna for a lunch, and more. Mark hard boiled eggs with a pencil – mine say ‘HB’ Not too original, but I don’t have to worry about getting a raw egg when I wanted a cooked one, or vice versa.
Next morning:
Peel eggs and put into warm water to bring to room temperature.
While bread is toasting, mash eggs roughly with a fork
Mix in mayonnaise and yogurt if you want a slightly looser salad.
NOTES:
- To hard boil eggs – put in a pot, cover eggs with cold water, set on medium heat and cover. Bring to a boil, and let boil 3 minutes. Turn off heat, and let sit, covered for 15 minutes or more. Eggs will be cooked perfectly. If you have some older eggs, use them – they tend to peel more easily.
