Because I didn’t track it back then and WW didn’t use it to calc points. I’m in the processess of updating all my old recipes but it will take awhile. Sorry. :(

Just wondering why protein isn’t included in nutrition facts?

I love egg salad so much, but this way is so much better. 3 days in a row, this has been my lunch. Just wonderful and for sure you use much less mayo.
Thanks!

Hi Romi, this looks SO awesome. I have a question regarding the servings. It says 4 servings, but it’s one sandwich. So, do you only eat 1/4 of the sandwich? I guess my question is why does it say “4 servings”.

I love this sandwich. Try it with the egg still hot from being boiled, with just a smidgen of light cheese, some thinly sliced tomatoes and some rocket leaves – this is a BIG sandwich which looks amazing. I have it for supper as its too big for a lunch!

Sounds delish! Poached egg sandwiches are also delish. I loooove a nice poached egg, with a sprinkle of cracked black pepper and a few shavings of grana (or parmesan or any hard cheese) on it for a salty bite. Best eaten on a crusty whole wheat roll, sometimes with a little raw spinach or arugula…yummy!

My favorite thing on the cheap…

1/4 cup of egg beaters (microwave for 1 min)
2 slices of light wheat bread (toasted)
1 T. carb ketchup

I figure this at 2 points…I love eggs with lots of ketchup!!! I think it may be a PA thing though ;)

I have no idea why the points are slightly different. but I also only got 18 points down there where as here I get 21…so I think some things might be calculated slightly differently (kilojules instead of calories maybe?) But I must admit – I think I enjoyed it more when it was only 1 point :)

I tried this for dinner tonight … Surprisingly, I was full (I tend to have a mental block about eating “just a sandwich” for dinner). Of course, I did use a larger whole wheat roll and two eggs, for a total of 7 Points, but it was still very good.

LibbyLee – OK, that’s unfair!! LOL I still base the points on total nutrition values anyway. I wonder if eggs are smaller down under?!?

An egg is only 1pt in Australia?

That sandwich does look very appealing. I think I will try it that way. Thanks!

You could use light Miracle Whip rather than plain mayo and add some lettuce to make it exactly the way I have always loved it!!! Yummy!

Kelley – Thanks for catching it!! I accidently left the info from my Okra stew!! LOL Sorry, all corrected now. 1 tsp of light mayo is not a point so it’s only 4.

By: Kelley

Kelley — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 15:35:58 +0000

Hey Roni – how did you work out the points for this? It says 2 points for 1 sandwich, but the egg alone is 2 points right? Then if it’s a roll, another 2 points and the tspn of light mayo another point. Total of 5 points…please correct me if I’m wrong. I did the points in Australia as well as in America and an egg there is only 1 point! So I wonder if they count the points a bit differently here. Thanks and please help me figure this one out!

great simple idea! i actually like egg salad but rarely eat it because i don’t want to go through the “hassle” of making it. this is much simpler and sounds yummy too!
