An egg salad sandwich with bacon and avocado. Could there possibly be a better combination? I think not.

I hate to tell you guys this, but this was my lunch and I loved it so much that I made them again for supper.

My poor family. I know they wish I wouldn’t find a favorite recipe and then cook it over and over.

Luckily for them, I also had thrown a roast in the slow cooker so they happily had other arrangements for their supper.

I promise you though, I could easily eat this combination every day and be a very happy girl.

It only took a few minutes to throw it all together, too. You see, I keep a zip top bag of boiled eggs in my refrigerator so they are ready for salads and sandwiches or just as a great little snack in the afternoons. Some days, I’ll just add a bit of salt and pepper to an egg and call it lunch!

Other days, I toss a few into the bowl of my Kitchenaid, fit it with the paddle attachment, add a bit of mayo and then let my stand mixer work its magic. I surely could do the same with a fork and a bowl, but since my Kitchenaid does it so well, I hate to deprive it the opportunity to give me a hand! Heh!

Add a few slices of fresh avocado and some bacon and you’ve got a meal! You can use whatever bread you prefer, but since Little Buddy has a thing for croissants from our local deli, I decided to use a croissant for these babies!

  1. My kids don’t like me messing around with the egg salad mix, so I love that you kept the mix simple & pure. The added bacon and avocado is definitely taking this over the top and I hope you don’t mind if I use this in a sandwich round-up with a link back.

  2. I love a good egg salad- a sandwich that is much underrated in my opinion. This looks decadent and worth every single calorie!

  3. 5 stars
    hubby loves my egg salad and takes it often for lunch – he will be over the moon with this one!

  4. oh drat, the only thing i’m missing is croissants! maybe this will have to be lunch instead of breakfast…

  5. O me, o my! You make me sigh, that’s such a good looking “sandwich”……….!!! Yep! It looks so good it made me sing!!! Hahaha! I have never thought of using my kitchen mixer for this! You made my day!

  6. I have actually been craving some egg salad lately…I am definitely getting some avocado to slice on top now! Love it!!!

  7. So, would you judge me if I told you that I ate egg salad on cheapy hot dog buns for both breakfast and lunch today?

    Sadly, mine were missing the bacon and avocado. Guess what’ I’m having for lunch tomorrow!
