Introduction to Healthy Egg Salad
These Healthy Egg Salad recipes are highly requested and long overdue. Eating egg salad every single day has become a staple in my life. The high fat to protein ratio keeps me full and satisfied until dinner, and I can change it up every time I make it. This post features my two favorite ways to make it!
So, What Makes The Perfect Egg Salad?
For me, it’s all about the size in which you chop up the eggs as well as the add-ins. I love anything crunchy, salty, or colorful to make my egg salad experience more enjoyable. The two perfect egg salad recipes to me are a crunchy curry egg salad and a spicy salty egg salad. I always use zucchini slices as the egg salad vessel, but you can use any veggie you want or even pork rinds or flackers.
Making Egg Salad Is My Therapy
The way I make it uses a lot of steps that allow me to forget about everything and rely on my love for egg salad. I get to use my cutting skills and open the fridge and spice cabinet to peruse all the potential add-in options. Chop the eggs, dollop on the mayo, sprinkle on bacon bits and chopped up veggies, mix and enjoy. It’s a therapy session that always ends with a delicious bite!
Healthy Egg Salad | Two Ways!
If you haven’t ever tried egg salad or had a good version, now is your chance. I’ve got something for those who love some spice or those who like more of a crunch. Hard-boiled eggs are one of my favorite snacks, so being able to combine them with something as fatty and delicious as mayo makes for the perfect keto lunch! When I’m looking for a pick-me-up, I like to make the spicy sriracha egg salad, and when I’m sitting down to do work or watch TV, I like to make the curry egg salad.
