Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 0.5 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon dill, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon chives, finely chopped
- 1 stalk celery, finely chopped
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Place the eggs in a medium saucepan and cover them with cold water until there's about an inch of water above the eggs.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, remove the saucepan from the heat, cover it, and let it sit for 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool for about 5 minutes. This will stop the cooking process and make them easier to peel.
Peel the eggs and chop them into small cubes.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the non-fat Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard to create the dressing.
Add the chopped eggs, dill, chives, celery, salt, and pepper to the bowl with the dressing.
Gently fold the ingredients together until everything is well combined.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Enjoy the salad as a filler for sandwiches or as a healthy side dish.
