    This recipe has become a recent favorite of mine, so I thought I'd share! I love that it's high in protein. It also happens to be low in carbs for all you low-carbers out there! It's very customizable; I just made this with what I had on hand. The main secret is using greek yogurt instead of mayo (you won't miss the mayo, trust me).

    Recipe makes 2 servings. You'll need:

    2 large eggs, hard boiled, chopped fine
    1/4 cup plain nonfat greek yogurt
    1 dill pickle spear, chopped fine
    1 tsp yellow mustard
    Salt, pepper, paprika, or other sesonings to taste
    Any other veggies you want (onion, cabbage, etc.) chopped fine

    Stir together all ingredients in a bowl until well mixed. Serve however you'd like; I usually eat mine on whole wheat bread for a sandwich, or use a whole wheat tortilla to make a wrap. Makes 2 servings.

    Per serving: 88 calories, 2g carbs, 5g fat, 9g protein

    I often eat both servings at once :) Enjoy!


    Going to try this! Thanks

    I like my egg salad - two boiled eggs mashed with fork and mixed with cottage cheese.

    I really like faux egg salad: Use same recipe but substitute firm tofu cubed.

    I never would have thought of that, but it sounds tasty. I'll be giving that a try sometime.

    Sounds amazing. I think I will add a chopped chicken breast as well. More protein (and it simply tastes great, haha). Thanks for the recipe, it was a great inspiration for today :flowerforyou:
