Cook Time: 10 minutes

Total Time: 25 minutes

Servings: 4

Skill Level: Easy

Ingredients

• 6 large eggs
• 1/3 cup mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon curry powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 cup finely diced celery
• 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 8 slices of multigrain bread
• 1/2 cup fresh baby spinach leaves

Instructions

1. Place the eggs in a medium saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, remove from heat, cover, and let sit for 10 minutes.
2. Drain the hot water and transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool for about 5 minutes. Peel the eggs under cold running water.
3. In a large bowl, mash the eggs with a fork or a potato masher until well crumbled but still chunky.
4. Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, curry powder, salt, black pepper, celery, cilantro, and honey to the eggs. Mix until thoroughly combined and creamy.
5. To assemble the sandwiches, place a handful of fresh baby spinach leaves on a slice of multigrain bread.
6. Spoon a generous amount of the curried egg salad onto the spinach and spread evenly.
7. Top with another slice of bread and gently press down. Repeat with remaining slices.
8. Slice the sandwiches in half, if desired, and serve immediately.

Helpful Tips

• For easier peeling: Add a tablespoon of vinegar to the boiling water to make the eggshells peel off more easily.
• Spice level: Adjust the curry powder according to your taste preference. Add a pinch more if you like it spicier.
• Make-ahead: The egg salad can be made ahead of time and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Storage Instructions & Ingredient Substitutions

• Storage: Store the curried egg salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Assemble sandwiches just before serving.
• Substitution: Use Greek yogurt in place of mayonnaise for a healthier option. If you dislike honey, try maple syrup or agave nectar for sweetness.
