Ingredients
  

  • 8 large hard-boiled eggs, peeled and chopped
  • 1/2 cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/3 cup finely diced celery
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped green onions
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Method
 

  1. Place the chopped eggs in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Add the Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, celery, green onions, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Gently stir until everything is evenly combined while maintaining some texture from the eggs.
  4. Fold in the fresh parsley.
  5. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to blend.
  6. Serve on whole grain bread, in lettuce cups, wrapped in a tortilla, or with sliced vegetables.

Notes

For the best texture, allow the eggs to cool completely before mixing. Chilling the finished salad before serving helps create a thicker and creamier consistency.
