Instructions:

Tips:
- Boil the eggs in advance: Boil the eggs ahead of time and let them cool completely before making the salad. This will save you time and make it easier to peel and chop the eggs.
- Mash avocado just before use: To prevent the avocado from browning, mash it just before you mix it with the other ingredients.
- Use fresh chives: Fresh chives add a lovely mild onion flavor to the salad. If you don't have fresh chives, you can substitute with a small amount of finely chopped green onion.
- Toast the bread: For added texture and flavor, lightly toast the multi-grain bread slices before assembling the sandwiches.
- Customize your sandwich: Feel free to add other ingredients like lettuce, tomato, or red onion slices to give the sandwich extra flavor and crunch.
