A lighter, brighter twist on the classic egg salad on toast. It’s super simple and comes together so quickly, it’s perfect for preparing the night before and tossing onto some toast for those busy mornings.
Combine soft-boiled eggs with a simple home-made mayo (just olive oil, dijon mustard and lemon juice). Add plenty of fresh herbs to brighten it up, and top with pickled red onions to add a bit of punch. I’ve served this on Abbott’s Sandwich Thins for a lower-calorie breakfast, but serve with any bread of your choice.
