Ingredients

Salad Ingredients

  • 2 eggs
  • 2 slices bacon
  • 5 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp mustard
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Boil eggs: In a medium-sized pot, bring water to a boil and gently add the eggs. Cook for 8 minutes to hard boil them, then remove and cool before peeling.
  2. Cook bacon: While the eggs boil, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Drain on paper towels and chop into small pieces.
  3. Slice eggs: Slice the hard-boiled eggs, rotate a quarter turn, and slice again to create small pieces. Place sliced eggs in a mixing bowl.
  4. Combine dressing: Add mayonnaise and mustard to the bowl with eggs. Season with salt and black pepper to taste, then mix well until combined.
  5. Mix salad: Stir in diced bacon and chopped parsley, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated.
  6. Serve: Spoon the Bacon & Egg Salad onto a slice of toast and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use fresh eggs for the best texture and taste.
  • Adjust mayonnaise amount for desired creaminess.
  • For extra flavor, add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dash of smoked paprika.
  • Serve chilled or at room temperature.
  • Bacon can be substituted with turkey bacon for a leaner option.
