If you love re-invented classics like this easy egg salad, you’ll also love: homemade healthy air fryer fish sticks, easy ground beef tacos, and deviled eggs!

I don’t know why, but over the years I’ve developed a hard core obsession with hard boiled eggs:

  • AM: hard boiled eggs with sriracha or truffle salt
  • Snack: deviled eggs #alldayeveryday
  • PM: easy egg salad sandwich on toasted bread

Don’t ask me why it took me so long to post this easy egg salad recipe. It’s great on it’s own with a spoon or lettuce to keep this low carb, but I also love it served with crunchy crackers or on toasted bread with a little spinach!

It’s creamy, it’s hearty, it’s crunchy, it’s delicious.

Bonus: I used light mayo (I love the olive oil based kind) to keep the flavor, but added in some non fat plain greek yogurt to lighten this up a bit.

Get ready.

The obsession is real.

How to make a simple egg salad sandwich recipe:

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together mayo, greek yogurt, dijon, salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
  2. Add in hard boiled eggs, celery, and red onion.
  3. Stir to combine.
  4. Taste and re-season, if desired.
  5. Serve on toasted bread (I like adding a little spinach too for color), serve with crackers, or even serve plain!

This quick and easy, healthy lunch is perfect for meal prep, especially if you’re needing a vegetarian and gluten free option!

I love the hearty eggs mixed with the crunchy celery and tangy red onion. Don’t forget about the flavor bomb super creamy sauce with spices!
