Egg Salad BLT's

I thought I would be really clever and come up with a double whammy of a blog post. Riiiggghhht, not so much. Have you seen the so cute, gotta try it, kids would love it, dying eggs with whip cream? Me, too! Well, let me just say, pinterest FAIL. Mine ended with my kids eating eggs, er, egg shells and rainbow stained hands, hair, and teeth. I think we might try it again, like never. Do you have a pinterest fail story? I'd love to hear it. Head on over to our Facebook page and share it with us. The entry with the greatest fail will win a $20 gift card to Amazon from yours truly. Oh, and "like" us, because we are pretty awesome.

My hubby is a man of simple taste buds, eggs are a staple in a house. Egg sandwiches, fried eggs, hard boiled eggs, breakfast for dinner, you get the idea? He also loves BLT's, so I decided to marry his favs.

Ingredients:

- 8 slices Sour Dough Bread
-Mayo... or are you a miracle whip fan?
-Tomato
-Lettuce
-Bacon...buy the center cut kind, nothing is worse than fatty rubbery bacon.

Egg Salad:

-1 dozen eggs... We bake ours.
-1/2 cup onion
-1 stalk celery
-1/2 cup mayo
-2 TBSP relish
-2 TBSP mustard, I use honey mustard
-1 TBSP lemon juice-Salt and pepper to taste

Dice up your eggs. My sister Dana, who makes a mean potato salad taught me to do this with a spoon, seriously best trick ever. Mix together remaining ingredients.

Directions:

Skip the "I'm going to be the cool Mom and dye eggs with the kids" part. Ok?

Whip up your egg salad, and stash in the refrigerator so it can set up a bit. Fry up your bacon, and toast your bread. For extra yumminess I turn my oven onto broil, put a layer of mayo on my bread and toast it that way, soooo good. Just keep an eye on it until it is to your personal golden perfection. Next slice up all your goodies and put your egg salad on your sandwich. Easy peasy!

I hope you enjoy this recipe!
