Nutrition Facts: servingSize 1 /4 recipe, calories 110 kcal, Carbohydrate 2 g, Protein 10 g, Fat 7 g, Saturated Fat 2 g, Cholesterol 246 mg, Sodium 273 mg, Fiber 0.3 g, Sugar 1 g, unSaturated Fat 3 g
Ingredients:
- 6 large eggs
- ¼ cup plain Greek yogurt ( or mayonnaise)
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard (or yellow mustard)
- 3 tablespoons finely chopped red onion (or to taste)
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
- ¼ teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper (or to taste)
Instruction:
- Cook eggs: Fill a medium saucepan or pot with enough water so that it will cover the eggs by ¾ to 1 inch when you add the eggs to the pot (but do not add the eggs yet). Heat over high heat until the water comes to a rolling boil. Then reduce the heat to a gentle boil and very gently lower the eggs into the water using a slotted spoon or metal strainer. Immediately increase the heat so that the pot comes back to a gentle rolling boil. Boil the eggs for 14 minutes, adjusting the heat as necessary to maintain a gentle rolling boil.
- Immediately transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water and let them sit for 5 minutes. Peel the eggs.
- Chop the eggs and place in a medium mixing bowl. Add the plain Greek yogurt (or mayonnaise), Dijon mustard, chopped red onion, chives, salt and pepper. Stir until well combined.
- Taste and adjust seasonings, as needed. If the egg salad isn’t creamy enough, stir in a little more yogurt or mayo.
- Serve egg salad in a sandwich or wrap, on toasted bread topped with sliced avocado, in lettuce wraps, or as desired.
