Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 0.5 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 2 celery stalks, finely chopped
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon paprika (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Place the eggs in a single layer in a large saucepan. Add enough water to cover the eggs by at least an inch. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Once the water reaches a rolling boil, cover the saucepan and remove it from the heat. Let the eggs sit in the hot water for 10-12 minutes for perfect hard-boiled eggs.
Step 3
Drain the eggs and transfer them to a bowl filled with ice water. Let them cool for at least 5-10 minutes.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and white vinegar. Stir well until smooth.
Step 5
Peel the eggs once they are cool enough to handle, then chop them coarsely.
Step 6
Add the chopped eggs, celery, green onions, and parsley to the mayonnaise mixture. Stir gently until all ingredients are well combined.
Step 7
Season the egg salad with salt and black pepper to taste, then mix well.
Step 8
Refrigerate the egg salad for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Step 9
Serve chilled, optionally sprinkled with a little paprika for garnish, alongside low-carb bread, over greens, or on its own as a flavorful low-carb dish.
