A healthier twist on a classic favorite, this recipe brings you a perfectly balanced mix of flavors and textures.
Start with a base of hard-boiled eggs, and instead of mayo, we opt for nonfat Greek yogurt. It's light on fat and rich in protein, adding creaminess to the salad. A zesty kick comes from yellow mustard and apple cider vinegar, providing just the right tang.
For a refreshing twist, consider adding chopped green onions and a touch of fresh dill or dill relish. Season it to perfection with a pinch of salt and pepper. The result is a guilt-free egg salad that's both nutritious and delicious. Enjoy this balanced and satisfying dish in sandwiches, wraps, or on a bed of greens!
