Ingredients:
4 large eggs
1/4 cup mayonnaise (adjust for desired creaminess)
1 tablespoon mustard (yellow or Dijon)
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs (like parsley or chives, optional)
2 slices of bread (any kind you like, white, whole wheat, or sourdough)
Lettuce (optional, for crunch)
Tomato slices (optional, for extra flavor)

Instructions:
Boil the eggs: Place the eggs in a saucepan, cover with water, and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat. Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the eggs simmer for about 9-12 minutes. After cooking, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool down quickly.

Peel the eggs: Once the eggs are cool enough to handle, peel them and chop them into small pieces.

Make the egg salad: In a bowl, combine the chopped eggs, mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and pepper. Mix everything well. Add any optional herbs for a bit of freshness.

Assemble the sandwich: Spread the egg salad mixture on a slice of bread. If you’re using lettuce or tomato, layer those on top before adding the second slice of bread.

Serve: Slice the sandwich in half and enjoy!
