Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces Large eggs
- 4 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 piece Celery stalk
- 2 pieces Green onion
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Place the 6 large eggs in a medium-sized saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.
Once the water reaches a rolling boil, turn off the heat, cover the saucepan, and let the eggs sit for 10 minutes.
While the eggs are resting, finely dice the celery stalk, chop the green onions, and mince the fresh parsley. Set them aside.
After 10 minutes, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water and let them cool for about 5 minutes. Peel the eggs and chop them into small chunks.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Fold in the chopped eggs, celery, green onions, and parsley. Mix gently to evenly coat the ingredients, being careful not to mash the eggs too much.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve the egg salad on lettuce wraps, cucumber slices, or low-carb tortillas for a delicious low-carb meal.
