Classic Egg Salad recipe for sandwiches. I have them hear sliced small enough to serve as an appetizer, but you can use as your lunch or dinner.

Is egg salad sandwich good for you?
It can be high in fat, along with cholesterol and calories. But, you can make a few changes to make it lighter. Use light mayo and lower calorie bread.
What can I use instead of mayo in egg salad?
Yogurt, hummus or cottage cheese if you like those.
How long does egg salad last in the fridge?
Egg salad should last about 5 days if kept in an airtight container. Do not leave at room temp for more than 2 hours though.
