This egg salad cuts the fat content without sacrificing flavor. Spiced-up, fat-free mayonnaise and just two yolks out of the four eggs adds creamy richness. Hearty whole-grain dark bread makes this sandwich as filling as it is flavorful. Pumpernickel is a slightly sweet German sourdough bread made from coarsely ground rye grain. Look for thin-sliced pumpernickel and toast it lightly if you like so that it holds up to this creamy filling. Of course, dark rye or dark wheat can be substituted to suit your tastes. Slice each sandwich into quarters—triangles or fingers—for luncheon-perfect tea sandwiches.
