For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a dash of hot sauce. If you prefer a smoother egg salad, mash some of the hard-boiled eggs with a fork before mixing. This egg salad is best served chilled. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Serve on your favorite bread, crackers, or lettuce wraps. Garnish with a sprinkle of paprika or fresh dill. Consider adding a tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley for added freshness.

Jun 27, 2025I was skeptical about the Greek yogurt, but it made the egg salad so much lighter and healthier. I'll never go back to using mayo!
