An egg salad BLT is a great way to use up those hard boiled eggs after Easter! Delicious egg salad, crispy bacon, sliced tomatoes and romaine lettuce piled onto grilled bread.
We love sandwiches and have them for dinner once a week! You'll definitely want to check out our grilled cheese with avocado and bacon sandwiches, our turkey avocado sliders and our chicken salad sandwiches
Years ago my cousin told me about this sandwich. She knew that we have a slight obsession with coloring a lot of eggs in our home We always color 5 dozen. Now that we have 5 kids it isn't that big of a deal, they each color 12, but back when we only had 2 or 3 kids it was an over kill. The tradition came from my husband's side of the family. They always colored a ton of eggs so it became a tradition in our home as well. I don't like wasting food so we always make sure to use them up. It's a good thing that hard boiled eggs last for quite awhile!
A fun twist on the traditional BLT Sandwich
Egg salad is my favorite way to use up those eggs. The rest go in the kids' lunches. Have you tried mixing egg salad with a classic BLT? The sweetness of the mayonnaise in the egg salad blends perfectly with the salty bacon.
Best Egg Salad Recipe
This is such a simple recipe, but it's the best! Hard boiled eggs, mayonnaise, sweet relish, and salt and pepper (to taste). I make enough for 4 sandwiches and keep it in the refrigerator.
Easiest Way to Hard Boil Eggs
Everyone has their tried and true favorite way of boiling eggs. I've recently converted to making hard boiled eggs in my pressure cooker. The shells come off so easily every time. I used this tutorial from AllRecipes.
