EGG SALAD SANDWICHES WITH GREEN OLIVE, CELERY AND PARSLEY



Egg Salad Sandwiches With Green Olive, Celery and Parsley image

This zesty egg salad has no mayonnaise (but a dab of homemade mayonnaise would be permissible). Use picholine or other tasty green olives (not the bland canned supermarket type) or substitute Italian-style marinated artichoke hearts. You could add a little chopped anchovy and a few capers, too, if so inclined. Served open-face as appetizers, these sandwiches are very pretty, but there's no reason not to use the filling for a conventional sandwich.

4 large eggs, boiled 9 minutes, chilled in ice water and peeled

OLIVE AND EGG SALAD SANDWICHES

Provided by Carolyn Haas

Categories     Sandwiches

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 hardboiled eggs
1 1/2 Tbsp chopped pimento stuffed green olives (about 8)
2 tsp whole grain mustard
1 Tbsp minced onion
2 Tbsp mayonnaise, light or regular
favorite seasoned salt and pepper, to taste
1/2 c baby spinach leaves
4 slice whole grain bread

Steps:

  • 1. Chop eggs and olives. Add onions and mustard.
  • 2. Mix together with mayonnaise and seasonings.
  • 3. Layer spinach leaves on 2 slices of bread, cover each with half of the egg salad. Cover with other slices of bread.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: This will make a big difference in the overall flavor of your salad sandwiches. Look for ripe olives, hard-boiled eggs, and fresh herbs.
  • Don't overcook the eggs: Overcooked eggs will be dry and rubbery. Cook them just until they are set, about 10 minutes.
  • Chop the ingredients finely: This will help them to combine well and make it easier to spread the salad on bread.
  • Use a good quality mayonnaise: A good mayonnaise will add richness and flavor to your salad. Look for a mayonnaise made with olive oil or avocado oil.
  • Season the salad to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of Dijon mustard for extra flavor.
  • Serve the salad sandwiches on your favorite bread: Choose a bread that is sturdy enough to hold up to the salad, but not too thick or heavy.

Conclusion:

Olive and egg salad sandwiches are a delicious and easy-to-make lunch or snack. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying sandwich that is perfect for any occasion. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give olive and egg salad sandwiches a try. You won't be disappointed!
