For Serving (Optional):
Sliced bread (whole grain, sourdough, or your favorite)
Lettuce leaves or arugula
Sliced tomatoes or pickles
Preparation:Chop the eggs into bite-sized pieces and place them in a mixing bowl.
Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and chopped chives.
Season with salt and pepper to your liking.
Gently mix everything until well combined — avoid overmixing to maintain a nice texture.
Scoop the mixture onto slices of bread, and optionally top with lettuce, tomato, or pickles.
Garnish with extra chives and serve immediately, or chill for 15 minutes for a firmer texture.
Serving and Storage Tips:
Serve fresh as a sandwich or on crackers, in a wrap, or in lettuce cups.
Best enjoyed cold or slightly chilled, especially on hot days.
Store egg salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Avoid freezing, as mayonnaise and eggs do not thaw well.
