Ingredients

  • Egg Salad

  • 225 g (1 cup) Mayo

  • 30 g (2 cups) spinach

  • 8 g (½ cup) fresh dill

  • 2 g (2 Tbsp.) fresh tarragon

  • 25 g (1 cup) fresh parsley

  • 3 cloves garlic

  • 6 g (1 tsp) salt

  • 10 g (½ Tbsp.) honey

  • 24 hard boiled eggs

  • 1 Avocado

  • 1 avocado (ripe but not overripe)

  • Juice of lemon

  • 10 g (2 Tbsp.) finely chopped chives

  • ½ tsp MSG

  • Sandwich Filling

  • Olive oil

  • Arugula

  • Sliced fresh tomato

  • Sandwich bread of your choice

Directions

  • Egg Salad
  • Add mayo, spinach, dill, tarragon, parsley, garlic, salt and honey to a food processor and spin until ingredients are broken down and the sauce is mostly smooth (30-45 seconds).
  • Press eggs through a wire rack to “dice” (or roughly chop the eggs) into a large bowl, keeping the pieces about the same size.
  • Pour the dressing from the food processor into the bowl of eggs.
  • Add the chives to the eggs. Stir gently to combine.
  • Medium dice the flesh from the avocado and add to egg bowl.
  • To the bowl, add the MSG, juice from the lemon, and salt to taste. Gently (to avoid mashing the avocado pieces) fold the mixture to combine.
  • Assembling the Sandwich
  • Add 3-4 large spoonfuls of the mixture to a piece of bread.
  • Top with arugula and tomato slices.
  • Drizzle with about ½ Tbsp. of olive oil.
  • Top with the final piece of bread, slice in half, and serve.

Notes

  • The calorie count of 275 does NOT include the bread.
  • For additional depth of flavor, add bacon bits to the egg salad
  • To save time, you can hard boil the eggs ahead a couple days before
