EGG SALAD & EGG SALAD SANDWICH

A classic

SERVES 4

3 eggs, hard boiled

6 egg whites, hard boiled

3 tbsp. low fat mayonnaise

2 tbsp. plain low fat yogurt

½ tsp. sea salt

½ tsp. black pepper

Paprika if desired

How To Hard-Boil an Egg:

Place eggs in a sauce pan large enough to have them in a single layer, not stacked

Add cold water to cover the eggs by about an inch

Heat on high until water boils, cover the pan and simmer for about 10-12 minutes

Drain and let sit in cold water until you can easily peel

Serve warm or refrigerate

Method

Hard boil all 9 eggs

Peel off egg shells and chop eggs (they do make an egg slicer usually available at most cooking stores)

Add yogurt and mayonnaise, a ½ tsp. of both salt and pepper, and mix together

Finish it off with a dash or two of paprika if desired

For sandwiches:

Lightly toast bread if desired and place a leaf or two of romaine or green leaf lettuce on top of your bottom slice of bread. Spoon in a serving of egg salad, top with another leaf or two of lettuce, and then add the top slice of bread
