Egg Salad Toasts
with roasted radish and butter lettuce salad
Egg salad is perfect for a picnic or a summery dinner too. Combine it with sliced cucumbers and avocado for a more sophisticated treat. Our paleo members will be enjoying this as a shrimp cobb salad.
Smarts: There are tons of tips out there for making easier-to-peel hard boiled eggs, but I find using older eggs to be the trick. This is why this is an end of the week meal.

Ingredients
Egg Salad Toasts with Avocado:
- Eggs - 10
- Mayonnaise - 3 Tbsp
- Dijon mustard - 1 1/2 tsp
- Ciabatta - 8 slices , sliced on the bias
- Cucumber - 1/2 lb , sliced thinly ((Use Persian or English for fewer seeds))
- Avocado (small to medium) - 2 , sliced ((Or sub 1 large))
Roasted Radish and Butter Lettuce Salad:
- Radishes (loose) - 1 lb , trimmed and halved ((~1/2 bunch))
- Cooking oil - 1 Tbsp
- Dijon mustard - 1 tsp
- Honey - 1 tsp
- Apple cider vinegar - 1 1/2 Tbsp
- Olive oil - 3 Tbsp
- Butter lettuce - 1 head , leaves torn or chopped
Prep
- Hard boil eggs - Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water by ~1 inch (2.5cm). Sprinkle in some salt and bring to a boil. Once water boils, remove pan from heat and let the eggs sit in the heated water for 11 minutes. Rinse in cold water and peel when they’re cool enough to work with. The easiest way to crack the shell is to just roll it lightly against a hard surface and the shell should crack for easy peeling. (Can be done up to 3 days ahead)
- Radishes - Halve. (Can be done up to 3 days ahead)
