Ingredients

6 large eggs

1/4 cup mayonnaise

4 teaspoons Dijon mustard, plus more for spreading

1 tablespoon sweet relish

2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

2 scallions, thinly sliced

1 stalk celery, finely chopped

1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh dill

Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

8 thin slices multigrain or white sandwich bread

8 to 16 slices pickled beets (depending on size)

Butter lettuce leaves and sliced cucumbers and radishes, for topping

Sour cream and onion potato chips, for serving

Directions

  1. Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil. Gently lower the eggs into the water and return to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer the eggs 8 minutes. Drain the eggs, then rinse under cold water until cool enough to handle. Peel the eggs, then chop.
  2. Stir together the mayonnaise, mustard, relish and lemon juice in a large bowl. Fold in the chopped eggs, scallions, celery and dill; season with salt and pepper.
  3. Toast the bread, if desired, and lightly spread with mustard. Layer some pickled beets, lettuce, cucumbers and radishes on half the bread slices; season with salt and pepper. Top with the egg salad and remaining bread. Halve the sandwiches and serve with potato chips.
