Serving Size: 1 /4 recipe

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:

  1. 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.
  2. Immediately transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water and let them sit for 5 minutes. Peel the eggs.
  3. 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.
  4. Taste and adjust seasonings, as needed. If the egg salad isn’t creamy enough, stir in a little more yogurt or mayo.
  5. Serve egg salad in a sandwich or wrap, on toasted bread topped with sliced avocado, in lettuce wraps, or as desired.
