Boiled eggs really are the perfect little sack: full of protein and good fats. (Plus they contain almost every essential vitamin and mineral our bodies need!) While I love my boiled eggs cut in half with just a bit of salt and pepper; Egg Salad has always been one of my favorite ways to use boiled eggs.
I was raised on Miracle Whip and sweet relish in my egg salad, (chicken salad too) but since I’ve been limiting my added sugars, I’ve had to come up with a new recipe to enjoy my favorite egg salad.
I always have Davidson’s Safest Choice pasteurized, in the shell eggs on hand for use in my recipes with under-cooked eggs. (I make a no cook, custard based, sugar free ice cream with these eggs at least once a week!) And I frequently cook with them in other recipes too. They perform the same way as a regular egg but you don’t have to worry about salmonella in your eggs since the pasteurization process eliminates that risk in your eggs. (Read more about Davidson’s Safest Choice Eggs here and grab a coupon.)
The kids like their egg salad on toast or a bun, but I like to eat mine in a lettuce wrap or just straight out of the bowl!
Egg Salad Recipe (w/ a kick)
Ingredients:
- 5 hard cooked eggs, diced into small pieces

I have been a fan of both mayo and miracle whip equally. They each have their place in my life. And I have egg salad recipes for both. Love that this has sriracha.
