Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 60 grams low-fat plain yogurt
- 30 grams light mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives
Directions
Step 1
Place the eggs in a medium saucepan and cover with water by about 1 inch. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Once boiling, remove the saucepan from the heat, cover, and let the eggs sit for 10 minutes.
Step 3
After 10 minutes, transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool for about 5 minutes or until they can be handled comfortably. This stops further cooking.
Step 4
Peel the eggs and place them in a medium mixing bowl. Use a fork to mash the eggs to your desired consistency.
Step 5
Add the low-fat plain yogurt, light mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the eggs.
Step 6
Mix everything together until well combined and creamy.
Step 7
Stir in the chopped fresh chives, reserving a little for garnish.
Step 8
Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. You may add more salt or pepper depending on your preference.
Step 9
Chill the egg mayo in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to enhance the flavors.
Step 10
Serve the low-fat egg mayo with whole grain bread or as a salad topping. Garnish with the reserved chives before serving.
