I love it when my food cravings coincide with items I have in my fridge! I had a dozen hard-boiled eggs I needed to use, and when I came home from my workout today I was seriously craving egg salad (very weird, I know...guess I needed a protein fix!). I remembered an egg salad that my friends Kelly and Molly made when we went out to visit them in Denver that was awesome. The key ingredient was bacon--because bacon makes everything taste better, of course! It is really easy to make and really tasty. Put it on some great crusty bread with some garden-fresh tomatoes, and you have a delicious lunch. Enjoy!
Serves 4-6
- 4 slices thick-cut bacon, cut into small pieces
- 12 eggs, hard-boiled, peeled and coarsely chopped
- 3 green onions, finely chopped
- 1 TBSP white wine vinegar
- 3 TBSP mayonnaise (I use light, olive oil mayonnaise)
- 1-2 TBSP dijon mustard
- pinch salt
- a few grinds of black pepper
In a hot skillet, cook bacon pieces until crispy. Remove from pan with slotted spoon and let drain on paper towels. Set aside.
In a bowl, combine eggs, bacon, onions, vinegar, mayo, mustard, salt and pepper. Carefully fold ingredients together...try not to mash up eggs too much. Serve open face on baguette slices or on crusty bread as a sandwich and enjoy!
