Recipe for an Egg Salad using Greek Yogurt
Boil the Eggs:
- Place eggs in a pot that is covered in water. The eggs should be covered. Let the eggs cook to a boil. Then reduce it down to an evaporative simmer for approximately 9-10 minutes. Place the eggs in an ice bath immediately to stop the cooking process and aid in the peeling process. The eggs must be allowed to rest for about a few minutes before peeling.
Chop the Eggs:
- After the eggs have been chilled, peel them off and break them into bite-sized pieces. Put them in a huge mixing bowl.
Prepare the Creamy Yogurt Dressing:
- In an additional bowl Mix Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard with lemon juice, and salt the black pepper. Mix well until it's smooth. This is your creamy Greek yogurt dressing and offers the perfect blend of tanginess and richness.
Combine Everything:
- Add chopped onions, celery as well as other fresh herbs into the egg dish. Sprinkle the dressing with yogurt on top of the salad. The salad is to be folded gently until all the ingredients are evenly coated and the salad turns smooth.
Adjust and Garnish:
- Modify the spice with a taste and add more citrus juice or spice or salt. To add flavor and color, sprinkle on chili as well as paprika.
Chill & Serve:
- Then, chill for about 20-30 minutes to get the best taste as well as consistency. Make sandwiches using it wrapped in lettuce and served on whole grain crackers, and make a nutritious breakfast. Add eggs and yogurt..
