So I made egg salad earlier but without the globs and globs of Mayo, and it was delicious!!! I did 3 whole eggs, 1 w/o the yolk with 1tbsp miracle whip, 2-3tbsp vanilla yogurt, some mustard, pepper, and cajun seasoning and it was delicious! It tasted just like regular egg salad. I think I'm going to start making this for work and make an egg salad lettuce wrap at work.

Also I must say I'm excited to start experiment with substituting yogurt for other things, as it has become quite popular.

    Sounds delish! I need to start using yogurt as a substitute too. Egg salad is like my favorite thing in the world :D

    Nothing wrong with mayo, miracle whip on the other hand.

    Greek yogurt is da bomb! I use it for almost everything that calls for sour cream. I also use Hellman's low fat mayo for that mayo flavor, but I'll use 1/4 mayo and 3/4 yogurt for instance.

    My version is 1 whole hard boiled egg and 3 boiled whites with a Tsp Frenchs honey mustard sauce and 1-2 splenda packets....

    I know I didn't feel so guilty eating the whole bowl of it!

    To everyone else it may seem like I ate a lot of eggs at once, but I was busy all morning so I only had a string cheese so I had to make sure to get a good amount of protein in before I started to have the temptations of eating everything in sight.

    Yum! I made some the other day with a wedge of laughing cow light swiss cheese instead of mayo. Amazing! :)
