Egg Salad

  • 4 hard-boiled eggs, chopped

  • 1 teaspoon mustard
  • 1 sprinkle lemon juice
  • 1 pinch salt

  • Whole-wheat toast or whole-wheat crackers, for serving

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Chop the four hard-boiled eggs.
  • Mix the chopped eggs with 2 tablespoons of mayo, a teaspoon of mustard, and a sprinkle of lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a reusable container.
  • Spread onto a piece of whole-wheat toast or use crackers to scoop and enjoy.
  • Keep chilled in the cooler until ready to serve.

Notes

Serving tip: Sturdy whole-wheat crackers are the best choice for the beach because they hold up better than toast and give you an easy, sand-free way to scoop the egg salad.
Temperature safety: Keep your perishable food chilled at 40 °F or below inside the cooler. If the outdoor temperature exceeds 90 °F, make sure to refrigerate any leftovers within 1 hour to prevent spoilage.
