Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces large eggs
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 2 stalks green onions
- 1 piece celery stalk
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with cold water.
Bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat. Once boiling, cover the saucepan and remove it from heat. Let the eggs sit for 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice-cold water to stop the cooking process. Allow them to cool for about 5 minutes.
Peel the cooled eggs and chop them into bite-sized pieces. Place chopped eggs in a large mixing bowl.
Finely chop the fresh parsley, thinly slice the green onions, and dice the celery stalk into small pieces.
Add the chopped parsley, green onions, and celery to the bowl with the eggs.
In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, white vinegar, sea salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Pour the dressing over the egg mixture and gently stir to ensure everything is coated evenly.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if desired.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld. Enjoy as is, on low-carb bread, or with lettuce leaves!
