Ingredients
  

  • 5 large eggs
  • 3 medium asparagus spears, woody stems removed
  • 1/2 cup lemon mayonnaise ($notetemplate1$)
  • 2 tablespoons lemon mayonnaise ($notetemplate1$)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
  • 8 slices white bread

Instructions
 

  • Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil; decrease heat so the water simmers gently.
  • Using a slotted spoon, gently lower the eggs into the water; cook for 11 minutes and then let cool.
  • While the eggs are cooking, grill the asparagus on a preheated panini grill; grill them for 1 minute until they are warm but still have a degree of crispness to them.
  • Transfer to a cutting board and slice on the bias, about ¼ inch thick.
  • Peel the eggs from their shells; use your fingers to break the eggs in half, transferring the yolks to a mixing bowl and the whites to a cutting board.
  • Break the yolks with a fork, mashing until they resemble cornmeal; add in the sliced asparagus.
  • Roughly chop the whites into small but uneven pieces; transfer to mixing bowl; add in the mayonnaise.
  • Gently fold the ingredients together; the egg salad should have a creamy consistency, so add a tablespoon or two more mayonnaise, if necessary; season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Place half of the white bread slices on a clean work surface; spread about ¼ cup egg salad over each and top with remaining bread slices.
  • Before serving, use a serrated knife to remove the crusts from the sandwiches and cut into triangles.
