My husband likes to boil a dozen eggs at a time and keep them in the refrigerator for quick, easy and convenient snacking. However, the last batch were difficult to peel causing my husband to lose enthusiasm and interest in eating them, so I commandeered the remaining eggs – swiftly slicing them in half, scooping out the insides and chopping them into a salad for a delicious lunch.

EGG SALAD SANDWICHES

3 tablespoons Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon chopped green olives

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

sliced bread

fresh sage to garnish

In a medium bowl, combine eggs, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, dill, green olives, salt and pepper. Spread mixture on bread slices, top with another bread slice. Trim crusts from edges, and cut each into 4 triangles. Garnish with fresh sage.

Enjoy!

4 tablespoons grated Parmesan

1 1/2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

1 1/2 tablespoons sour cream

1 1/2 tablespoons mayonnaise

juice from half a lemon

1 teaspoon salt

Cook pancetta in a skillet over medium heat, until golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes. Drain, let cool and finely chop.

Slice eggs into halves lengthwise and scoop egg yolks into a bowl. Set whites aside.

Add 1 tablespoon of tarragon and remaining ingredients to egg yolks and mix until thoroughly combined. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.

Spoon yolk mixture back into egg white halves and garnish with a sprinkle of remaining tarragon.
