Egg Tomato and Scallion Sandwich
I often make this egg sandwich for my daughter Karina because he loves it! Plus it’s inexpensive and easy to make. You can make it a day ahead if you want to pack it to eat on the go! Sounds too simple, right? Well try it and you will see why I’m so addicted! More easy lunch ideas with hard boiled eggs, you can make my classic egg salad recipe or these lentil avocado egg bowls!
Before I left my previous job in Manhattan, there was a small cafe that served this simple egg sandwich that I was hooked on. It’s so simple but the flavors just work with the tomatoes and scallions. Now that I work at home, I make it quite often for myself and my daughter as she often requests it.
Helpful Tips:
- Keep hard boiled eggs in your refrigerator for a quick breakfast on the go, to add to sandwiches or even salads. It only takes a few minutes to boil a few eggs, here’s a foolproof way to make perfect hard boiled eggs every time.
- If possible, boil older eggs first. Fresh eggs are harder to peel once hard boiled.
- If you have an Instant Pot, you can make Perfect Instant Pot Hard Boiled Eggs that are also easy to peel.
- For the same number of smart points and 50 more calories, sub my Easy Bagel Recipe (live link) in place of your roll.
- Swap the potato rolls for my easy homemade bagel recipe for the same Smart Points.
- Serve it open-faced on a slice of sourdough bread!
- You can make the sandwiches the night before and wrap them tight with plastic for quick and easy breakfast to go.

Loved this! I only found your website last week and have already made and loved all 4 recipes I tried so far. I think this simple sandwich will be a staple in my meal plans. I did not have low fat mayo so i used .5 TBS of what I had and I also added half a mini avocado. I weighed everything and entered into MFP for a total of 289 calories! Awesome!

SO GOOD. I have this a couple of times a week because its such a refreshing sandwich.
I can’t find 100 calorie rolls so I usually make this as an open toast sandwich on a slice of wholemeal or rye bread. It’s SO GREAT !
I would tweak this with krafts ff mayo or waldens no cal dressing & Sara lee 45cal. bread for lower points value. franniemak@aol.com
My granny used to make this for me during the summer when tomatoes were ripe and juicy. She's been gone 12 years now. Thanks for the wonderful memories you stirred up by posting this recipe.
This looks delicious. I can't wait to try it!
So I can make these the night before?
This is the perfect summer breakfast! So delicious and satisfying!
I just love your site and those knives! Would you mind sharing where you got them?
