A classic egg and mayo sandwich!!

I love mayonnaise! I can create 30 different styles of dishes using mayo but my absolute favorite is a classic egg and mayo sandwich.

Boil egg to hard boil and cut into pieces.
Take any flavored mayo of your choice and mix it with the egg.
Add some pepper to give the added flavor.

If you like some crunch, you can add some chopped cabbage in the egg and mayo mix.
I like mine just like that between two slices of brown bread.

It's perfect start to a perfect day!
