Ingredients

  • 4 pieces large eggs
  • 0.25 cup low-sodium mayonnaise
  • 0.25 cup Greek yogurt
  • 0.25 cup celery, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons green onions, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon fresh dill, chopped
  • 0.25 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 pieces whole grain bread slices
  • 4 pieces romaine lettuce leaves

Directions

Step 1

Place eggs in a saucepan and cover them with water by about an inch. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, cover the saucepan and remove it from the heat. Let the eggs sit in hot water for 10 minutes.

Step 2

After 10 minutes, drain the hot water and transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool for about 5 minutes, allowing them to peel more easily.

Step 3

Peel the eggs and place them in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Use a fork to mash the eggs roughly, leaving some larger pieces for texture.

Step 4

Add the low-sodium mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, and ground black pepper to the eggs. Stir until well combined.

Step 5

Gently fold in the chopped celery, green onions, and fresh dill, mixing until evenly distributed throughout the egg salad.

Step 6

To assemble the sandwiches, place a romaine lettuce leaf on two of the whole-grain bread slices.

Step 7

Divide the egg salad mixture evenly onto the lettuce-topped bread slices, spreading it out with a spoon.

Step 8

Top with the remaining bread slices to form sandwiches.

Step 9

Serve immediately, or store in the refrigerator for up to 12 hours before serving to keep the bread from becoming soggy.
