Bobby's Excellent Egg Salad Sandwich

Ingredients

2/3 cup light mayonnaise (recommended: Hellmann’s® or Best Foods®)
2 tablespoons dijonnaise
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 heaping tablespoon smoked Spanish paprika
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 green onions (pale green part), thinly sliced
1 cup diced celery
3 tablespoons finely chopped flat leaf parsley
8 hard boiled eggs, peeled and chopped
3 tablespoons olive oil
8 slices whole grain or whole wheat bread
½ small onion, thinly sliced
Parsley leaves, for garnish* (optional)

Directions

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, dijonnaise, white wine vinegar, and paprika.
2. Add the green onion, parsley, celery and eggs to the mayonnaise mixture and gently fold to combine; season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Brush the bread on both sides with some of the oil and grill on a grill or grill pan until lightly golden brown or place on a baking sheet and place under the broiler for 45 seconds per side.
4. Divide the egg salad among the 8 slices of bread, top with slices of onion and a few parsley leaves.

Serves 4.

*I garnished my sandwich with butter lettuce instead of parsley.
