Old School Lunch-Style Egg and Cucumber Salad Sandwiches

Eating these always make me nostalgic for school lunches. It's an easy, relatively simple sandwich but I have never seen this anywhere else so I posted this recipe. My sister, who went to the same school, says 'I don't remember this.' I wonder why. A lot of people seem to like it anyway!
The cucumber is prepared with salt, so don't use too much mayonnaise. When I was an elementary school student, I used to think that the mustard in mine was too strong so you might not need any mustard for your children's sandwiches. I think these are easier to eat than regular egg and sliced cucumber sandwiches. For 1 serving. Recipe by 明日見

Egg Salad Sandwiches Egg Salad Sandwiches
They sell these sandwiches at a store at our local train station. I wanted to be able to eat as many of them as I like, so I tried making them myself. I like the fact that they're looks so colorful.The foundation of this sandwich is the egg and nanohana. After that, you can add and combination of ham, lettuce, tomato, shrimp or bacon.The sandwiches will have a nicer texture if you chill them in the fridge for a while, as the bread will absorb some of the filling.If you make the sandwiches at night, wrap up in plastic and chill in the refrigerator, then cut them and eat in the morning they will be really moist and delicious.

Egg Salad for Sandwiches Egg Salad for Sandwiches
I make this with all the children's hard boiled eggs from the Easter Holiday every year and also sometimes in between when we are just craving it! I am a fan of miracle whip's flavor however, I will use mayonnaise if that's what I have. I also normally use celery seed as I enjoy the flavor of that as well. However, I've been out of that spice lately so I decided to substitute chia seeds and it worked just fine! You can also substitute any onions you have for the green ones. This is great on bread, in wraps, & even on crackers! (*Note: this recipe is written with eggs already hard boiled, if you need to boil them first, you will need to add 10-15 mins to your cook time.)

If doing 2 or more, a knife would be suitable.You can also use thinly sliced sandwich bread.Be sure to spread on the margarine first and then the mustard, and only coat one side of each slice.You can also slice it into 3 pieces.

Egg Salad for Sandwiches in Just One Minute Egg Salad for Sandwiches in Just One Minute
I really felt like eating egg sandwiches, but I didn't feel like boiling the eggs so I decided to cook them the easy way, in the microwave.-Be sure to pierce the film of the egg yolk well, or it will explode. Even so, you may hear popping sounds coming from the microwave, but if you keep it covered with plastic wrap, it will be fine.-Adjust the cooking time to your microwave.-Adjust the seasoning to your liking.

Easy Cucumber Salad Easy Cucumber Salad
This is a simple recipe from my childhood. My stepfather always made this growing up. We ate this as a side dish, as an appetizer, at cookouts,...even as a topper for other foods! He usually only did "Cucumbers & Tomatoes in Italian Dressing" but when I started making it myself in my late 20s I started adding onion because I'm obsessed with them! 😆👌 Then, in my early 30s a good friend made this at her home with the addition of green peppers as she had grown a lot of them that year. So now, my personal recipe has adapted to the inclusion of all of these wonderful foods! I also, play around occasionally with the dressing. 😎👍 This particular time I used a raspberry vinaigrette in place of Italian Dressing & I have also used regular vinaigrettes as well. This is always a nice addition to dinner or the cookout. And even as a midday snack! 👏🤤 Chef Mommy Nessa -

Egg Salad Sandwich with Avocado and Shrimp Egg Salad Sandwich with Avocado and Shrimp
I just love avocado, so I made this sandwich.This is so simple I don't really have any hints, but since avocado discolors, make this just before you want to eat your sandwich.If the avocado is hard and difficult to mash, you can soften it in the microwave. Be sure not to heat it for too long though.The sandwich is also delicious without the shrimp. Recipe by *ai* cookpad.japan
