Ingredients

  • 6 hard boiled eggs, peeled and coarsely chopped
  • ⅓ cup ( 75 mL ) diced ham
  • ⅓ cup ( 75 mL ) light or regular mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp ( 15 mL ) chopped green onion
  • ¼ tsp ( 1.25 mL ) pepper
  • 4 whole-grain bagels or English muffins
  • ½ cup ( 125 mL ) shredded light Cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven grill.
  2. Combine eggs, ham, mayonnaise, green onion and pepper in medium bowl. Slice bagels in half and toast. Spread egg salad on top and sprinkle with cheese.
