01
Step 1
Start by placing the eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover them with water, about an inch above the eggs. Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then take the pan off the heat, cover it, and let the eggs sit in the hot water for 15 minutes. After that, drain the water and run cold water over the eggs until they're cool enough to handle. Peel them and slice into about 1/4-inch thick pieces.

Step 2
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). While it heats up, melt a tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Toss in the chopped onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until it’s soft and translucent—about 5 minutes. Spread those onions evenly in a 9x13-inch baking dish, then layer the sliced eggs on top. Sprinkle the Swiss cheese over everything.

Step 3
In a bowl, whisk together the condensed soup and milk until smooth. Stir in the mustard, seasoned salt, dill, and black pepper, then pour this mixture gently over the eggs and cheese.

Step 4
Take the rye bread slices and spread each with softened butter, then cut each slice into quarters. Arrange the buttered bread pieces on top of the casserole, butter side up, overlapping if needed.

Step 5
Pop the dish in the oven and bake for about 30 to 35 minutes, until the bread is nicely browned and the casserole is hot and bubbly. Let it cool just a bit before serving.

Storage & leftovers
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave to keep the texture soft and creamy. You can also freeze portions for up to a month; thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
