Recipe: EGGcellent Egg Salad

Wednesday, July 29, 2009 by Annessa Chumbley
Egg salad is an old standby...and it needs to be jazzed up! This is my favorite way to eat egg salad, on a bed of spinach. While the whole egg is good for us, we've cut the fat in half by  using half the yolks and twice the whites!

4 hardboiled eggs, plus 4 hardboiled egg whites
1/4 cup light or fat-free mayonnaise
1 tablespoon yellow mustard
1 1/2 teaspoons dijon mustard
1 teaspoon chopped fresh dill
Fresh ground black pepper and salt, to taste
Handful fresh spinach leaves (optional)
  1. To hard boil eggs the easy way:  carefully add eggs to a medium-sized saucepan and cover with water. Over medium heat, bring eggs to a boil. Turn off the heat, cover and let set for 15 minutes.
  2. Under cold running water, remove each shell from the eggs and place the four eggs and four egg whites into a bowl. Using two knives, chop up eggs into bite-sized pieces. Add rest of ingredients and mix thoroughly. Refrigerate until ready to eat.
  3. To serve, enjoy a scoop over some fresh spinach leaves!

Delish and super-nutritious!
