- Add your favorite seasonings and mix-ins. This is where you can get creative and make your sandwiches your own.
- Spread the egg salad on your bread or crackers evenly. This will help to prevent the sandwiches from becoming soggy.
- Top the egg salad with your favorite toppings. Sliced cucumbers, tomatoes, bacon, or cheese are all great options.
- Serve the sandwiches immediately or wrap them up and refrigerate them for later. Egg salad sandwiches are best when eaten fresh, but they can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
