Directions

  1. Place eggs and water into a pot. Water should be an inch above the eggs. Over high heat, bring water to a full boil then turn off the heat, cover the pot, and let it sit for 12 minutes. Peel eggs under cold running water.

  2. On a cutting board, rough chop the hard-boiled eggs and place them into a large bowl. Do not chop them too fine that, because they will continue to break apart as when you mix them with the other ingredients.

  3. Add the mayonnaise, chives, mustard, salt, and pepper and mix until blended. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

  4. Use a round cookie or biscuit cutter large enough to cut two rounds from each slice of bread. You should end up with 32 rounds about 2- 2 1/2-inches in diameter. This should make 16 sandwiches

  5. Spread the egg mixture on half of the bread rounds and sprinkle with chopped parsley; then add the top round to make sandwiches.

  6. Deleted the cucumber salmon sandwich
