Ingredients

• 6 large Eggs
• 0.333 cup Mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 4 slices Bacon strips
• 4 large Croissants
• 2 medium Tomatoes
• 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
• 1 tablespoon Chives (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Place the eggs in a medium saucepan and add enough water to cover them by about 1 inch. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the eggs simmer gently for 10 minutes.

Step 3

While the eggs cook, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease. Once cool, crumble or chop the bacon into small pieces.

Step 4

When the eggs are done, transfer them to a bowl of ice water and let them cool for 5-10 minutes. Peel the eggs and chop them into small pieces.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped eggs, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and ground black pepper. Mix until everything is well combined.

Step 6

Fold the crumbled bacon into the egg salad mixture.

Step 7

Slice the croissants in half horizontally and lightly toast them if desired.

Step 8

Slice the tomatoes into thin rounds and wash the lettuce leaves thoroughly.

Step 9

To assemble each sandwich, place a layer of lettuce on the bottom half of a croissant, followed by 2-3 slices of tomato. Spoon a generous portion of the egg salad on top, then close the sandwich with the top half of the croissant.

Step 10

Garnish with chopped chives if desired, and serve immediately.
