Ingredients
- 5 hard boiled eggs
- 1 tablespoon sweet pickle juice
- 1 tablespoon Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1 sweet pickle chopped
- Kosher salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- If you haven't already, hard boil the eggs.
- When the eggs have finished cooking, dunk them in an ice bath, and let cool until you can handle them without burning your fingers.
- Peel the eggs.
- Chop the hard boiled eggs.
- In a medium bowl, combine the the pickle juice, Greek yogurt and mayonnaise. Whisk together until smooth.
- Chop up the pickle, and add it to the mixture, stirring until combined.
- Taste the mixture. Season with salt and pepper.
- Add the chopped eggs to the wet ingredients, stirring gently to combine. Do not stir vigorously, as you want the eggs to keep some of their texture.
- Chill, and then enjoy!
Notes
- Technically, you don't have to chill the egg salad before eating. I just really like mine cold. ;)
- Use old eggs. Did you know that older eggs peel more easily? If you're planning to make egg salad, consider purchasing your eggs a week early. They'll keep in the fridge.
- How to store: Keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up for 4 days.
- Make your egg salad sandwich with the toppings you love, whether that's romaine, red onions, tomatoes or anything else.
- Swap out the ingredients to your pantry and tastebuds. If you don't love mayonnaise, use Greek yogurt instead. Don't have yogurt? You can use all mayo!
