The Healthier Egg Salad SUCCESS!
February 28, 2012
This morning, I went to the gym for a Body Works Class, and got my booty kicked! I’m going to be sore tomorrow!
When I came home, I relaxed a little, had some coffee (re-hydrated, haha), blogged around, and then made some lunch
It worked! It worked! It worked!
Yesterday, I had a pretty much fail of an egg salad recipe, when I tried to leave out the mayo
Today, I was determined to give it another shot, using different ingredients, and oh my gosh! It was sooo good!
First, I concocted a little sauce for the eggs, in place of mayo:
- 1 tbsp. non-fat plain greek yogurt
- 1 tsp. EVOO
- 1/2 tsp. cumin powder
- 1 tsp. honey
- shake o’ salt & 2 shakes o’ peppa
Mix all of the above together, then add in your two hard boiled eggs and chop it all up
The honey allowed me to use less yogurt, because it helped everything stick together, and instead of giving it that sour yogurt taste, it added a sweetness to it, that made me feel as if I was eating this on honey wheat toast. Seriously, so good! I am so happy I found a way to kick the mayo!
I lightly toasted two pieces of organic, multi-grain bread, topped them each with a little egg salad, a few spinach leaves
Now, I have to try this same recipe (there’s no way I can abandon this one) with tuna, and chicken salad!
Are you going to try this recipe at home?
