Ingredients

12 extra-large eggs
1/3 cup good mayonnaise
2 teaspoons whole-grain mustard
1 tablespoons minced fresh dill, plus sprigs for garnish
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
8 slices 7-grain bread or round French bread (boule)
8 slices good smoked salmon

Directions

Place the eggs in a large pot and cover them with cool tap water. Bring the water to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer for 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and allow the eggs to sit in the water for another 5 minutes. Drain, then fill the pot with cold water. To peel the eggs, tap each end on a board, then roll the egg between your hand and the board to crackle the shell. Peel under running tap water and allow the eggs to cool to room temperature.

Place the eggs in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Pulse the processor 10 to 12 times to break up, but not puree, the eggs. Transfer the chopped eggs to a bowl and add the mayonnaise, mustard, dill, salt, and pepper. Combine lightly with a fork.

Toast or grill the bread. Lay 1 slice of salmon on each piece of bread, spread on the egg salad, then garnish with a sprig of dill. Serve at room temperature.

Simple and Light
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is a really simple, and fun recipe that takes no time at all. Really great tasting. I put mine on puff pastry and it... was awesome. I also made little hors d'oeuvres on crackers along with a thin slice of tomato, excellent. Read more

A winner with prosciutto and swiss cheese
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

We substituted prosciutto and thinly sliced swiss cheese for the smoked salmon. After cutting the rounds and lightly toasting... them, we added a layer of prosciutto and swiss cheese on top of the bread rounds and put it in the oven at 350 for five minutes until the cheese melted. Then we took it out of the oven, added the dollops of egg salad and put it back in the oven (now turned off) to warm. Fresh dill from the garden on top and voila! An elegant Sunday supper served with fresh fruit on the side.Read more

A perfect recipe for left over Easter eggs!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

This was a pretty basic egg salad but I really liked the addition of the smoked salmon and fresh dill. I added some minced... shallot and celery b/c I cannot eat egg salad w/o either of the two. I also hand chopped the eggs which I think makes for a better consistency. I squeezed lemon juice on the salmon to cut the salt and served it as a sandwich. Read more

Economical, Easy & Excellent!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this for our family Christmas party and everyone loved it. One thing I did that made it easier to serve as little... bites was I used a small cordial glass to cut rounds out of whole-grain sandwich bread slices (very very easy!) toasted the bread rounds and used them to put the salmon & egg salad on. I loved how it was easy to make everything ahead of time.Read more
