Who doesn’t love a Quick, Simple and Delicious Egg Salad Sandwich? It is one of my favorite sandwich for lunch! It is so easy to make and requires the LEAST amount of ingredients and time to make. To be honest, the longest time for this recipe is boiling the eggs! 🙂

A Basic Egg Salad Sandwich only requires 5 ingredients: Eggs, Salt, Pepper, Green Onion and Mayo. However, one of the Chef does his with mustard and it makes a HUGE difference! It makes it tastes so much better! If you make it with green onion, it is not as strong as red onion. green onion is more mild. The recipe below uses Red Onion as I don’t have Green Onion ready for use when I make this Egg Salad Sandwich.

Ingredients for this Quick, Simple and Delicious Egg Salad:

  • 1/4 red onion -> you can replace with 2 Stalks of Green Onion. It tastes better with Green Onion.
  • 1/2 Orange Pepper
Red Onion and Orange Pepper
Red Onion and Orange Pepper
  • A dozen Large Eggs
A Dozen Eggs, Diced Red Onion and Diced Orange Pepper
