Mini Bacon Jalapeno Egg Salad Sandwiches
Description
The recipe starts by gently hard boiling eggs and cooling them in ice water to ensure easy peeling and the correct texture. The eggs are chopped finely and mixed with cooked, chopped bacon and diced jalapeño, adding smokiness and heat. Mayonnaise and mustard bind the filling, lending creaminess and tang.
Soft white bread slices accommodate the filling well, providing a neutral, tender base. The sandwiches are assembled by dividing the filling between three bread slices, topping with the remaining slices, and optionally cutting crusts off before quartering into mini portions. This makes them easy to serve and eat at parties or casual gatherings.
The combination of smoky bacon and the bite of jalapeño distinguishes these egg salad sandwiches, making them flavorful yet familiar. The preparation also allows for easy adjustment of spice level by varying jalapeño amount.
Ingredients
- 6-8 egg large
- 8 ounces Bacon cooked and chopped
- 1 jalapeño diced, large
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
- 6 lices white bread soft
Instructions
- To hard boil eggs, cover with an inch of cold water in a saucepan, cover, and bring to a rolling boil. Keep covered but remove from heat and allow eggs to sit in hot water for about 12 minutes. Drain and immediately transfer to ice water bath. Once eggs have completely cooled, peel and chop into small pieces. Transfer to medium sized bowl.
- Combine remaining ingredients with the cooked egg and stir to combine. Divide evenly between three pieces of bread and cover with the remaining three pieces. Either serve as is or cut crusts off and then quarter each sandwich using a serrated edge knife to make mini sandwiches.
