Greek Yogurt Egg Salad

Mike and I both love egg salad, but for some reason I almost never make it. When I was testing out this recipe for Greek yogurt egg salad, I was reminded of just how easy it is to mix this up, and also of what a filling meal it makes. This egg salad is simple and quick to make, and since I swapped out most of the mayonnaise for Greek yogurt, it’s also healthy!  I kept this recipe nice and basic, with just a few simple ingredients. I added in some diced celery for crunch, and some Dijon mustard and paprika for a little extra flavor.  The end result is creamy and delicious – you can’t even tell that it’s a lighter recipe! Feel free to play around with the ingredient amounts and seasonings to end up with the flavor you want. We loved it the way it’s written, but this is one recipe that’s easy to adjust to personal preference. Enjoy!
