Bacon Egg Salad Crostini

Let’s get fancy! This Bacon Egg Salad Crostini is super easy to make and perfect for any party or a delicious snack!

I have Easter on my mind! I’m in charge of the family Easter egg hunt. So I guess eggs are on my mind.  We do use plastic eggs for our hunt but I know there’s going to be a lot of dyed eggs that will need to be eaten! And then there’s the fact that I just love a good old egg salad sandwich. 

This recipe is great for Easter and all the eggs but would be great for any party that you have going on. Heck, it would be perfect for a snack!

TIPS AND TRICKS

STORAGE: The egg salad will last up to 2 to 3 days in an airtight container stored in the fridge.

MAKE AHEAD: Yes you can! You will have to stir it for consistency.

MAYO? You can also use Miracle Whip for a different little twist.

SPICE: If you want to spice it up, add a dash of red pepper flakes.

CHEESE: You can also add a 1/4 cup of Feta for a different twist.
