Elevate your sandwich game with these irresistible Egg Olive Salad Sandwiches—perfect for lunch, brunch, or a light dinner. This recipe combines the creamy richness of hard-boiled eggs with the tangy saltiness of finely chopped green olives, a hint of crunch from diced celery, and a zesty kick from Dijon mustard. Blended with a creamy base of mayonnaise and Greek yogurt, this salad is perfectly balanced and flavorful. Fresh parsley adds a touch of brightness, while crisp lettuce and soft sandwich bread bring it all together into a satisfying, handheld delight. Quick to prepare in just 25 minutes, these sandwiches are a delicious and effortless crowd-pleaser for any occasion.
Place the eggs in a medium saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Once the water reaches a rolling boil, remove the saucepan from heat and cover it. Let the eggs sit for 10 minutes.
Drain the hot water and transfer the eggs into a bowl filled with ice water. Let them cool for 5 minutes.
Peel the cooled eggs and coarsely chop them. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth.
Add the chopped eggs, green olives, celery, and parsley to the bowl. Gently fold until all the ingredients are evenly coated.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
To assemble the sandwiches, place a lettuce leaf on a slice of bread, spoon a generous amount of the egg olive salad onto the lettuce, and top with another slice of bread.
Repeat with the remaining bread slices and filling to make four sandwiches.
Cut the sandwiches in half, if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
