Tips, food safety & substitutions
Mash the eggs well so the filling spreads smoothly and does not fall out. Food safety: use fully boiled eggs and serve soon after making. Allergens: contains egg, milk (cheese, butter, mayonnaise) and wheat (bread). Substitute: use cream cheese instead of mayonnaise, or add a slice of tomato for older children.
