Simple Yet Gourmet

 I love egg salad sandwiches.  They are quick, easy, and tasty, at least if you have hard-boiled eggs hanging out in your fridge...which I often do.  I like having them on hand for snacks, Brynlee's lunch, or this sandwich. Ok, back to the sandwich.   In the past I've stuck with the traditional components for Egg Salad: eggs, mayo, salt, pepper, and paprika.  Lately I've been making this version though and it's not going anywhere. At first the idea of adding bacon and cheese to egg salad sounded a bit strange to me but I have to admit, I think it's rather delicious.  The crunchy bits of bacon are the best! 

We had these for dinner last night and let me just say, Yum!  This is my favorite BBQ sauce ever!  So much better than any store-bought brand I've gotten in the past.  The flavor was sweet and tangy with a little bit of a kick.  If you don't like spice just leave out the cayenne and you'll be set.  Serve on homemade hamburger buns , rolls, or whatever you like.  Just be sure to have some napkins handy!

Chicken salad sandwiches seem to be the go to item for baby and bridal showers.  I wanted to make some for the baby shower, but had a dillema.   While I like the main components in the salad, I really do not like the taste of raw onions and celery.  However, I still wanted some crunch and flavor in the salad.
