Chef's Note

For the perfect egg salad texture, try using a pastry cutter instead of a fork to mash the eggs. This creates more uniform pieces and prevents over-mashing. You can prepare the egg salad up to 2 days ahead and store in the refrigerator for quick assembly at lunchtime.

Ingredients
  • 6 large eggs

  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt

  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

  • 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar

  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill

  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives

  • 1 stalk celery

  • 2 tablespoons red onion

  • 4 slices whole grain bread

  • 1 medium avocado

  • 1 cup mixed greens

  • 1 medium tomato

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika

  • 4 slices turkey bacon

Instructions
  • 1

    Place 6 large eggs in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

  • 2

    Once boiling, remove from heat, cover, and let sit for 9 minutes for perfectly cooked hard-boiled eggs.

  • 3

    While eggs are cooking, finely dice 1 stalk of celery and 2 tablespoons of red onion. Chop 1 tablespoon each of fresh dill and chives.

  • 4

    Cook 4 slices of turkey bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, about 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally. Set aside on paper towels to drain.

  • 5

    Prepare an ice bath. When eggs are done, transfer them to the ice bath and let cool for 5 minutes.

  • 6

    Peel the eggs and place in a medium bowl. Mash with a fork to desired consistency.

  • 7

    Add 1/4 cup Greek yogurt, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar, diced celery, diced red onion, chopped herbs, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon paprika to the eggs. Mix thoroughly.

  • 8

    Toast 4 slices of whole grain bread until golden brown.

  • 9

    Slice 1 medium avocado and 1 medium tomato.

  • 10

    Assemble sandwiches: Spread half the egg salad on 2 slices of toast. Top each with 2 slices of turkey bacon, avocado slices, tomato slices, and 1/2 cup mixed greens. Cover with remaining toast slices.

  • 11

    Cut sandwiches diagonally and serve immediately.
