Zero Point Egg Salad Sandwich
Ingredients:
- Eggs: 4 large (hard-boiled and peeled)
- Non-fat Greek yogurt: 1/4 cup (as a mayo substitute)
- Dijon mustard: 1 teaspoon
- Celery: 1 stalk (finely chopped)
- Red onion: 1-2 tablespoons (finely chopped, optional)
- Fresh herbs: such as chives, dill, or parsley (finely chopped, optional)
- Salt and pepper: to taste
- Lettuce leaves: 2-4 (for extra crunch)
- Tomato slices: optional
- Zero Point bread alternative: lettuce wraps, or a small serving of whole grain bread (check for low or zero point options)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Eggs: Chop the hard-boiled eggs into small pieces and place them in a mixing bowl.
- Make the Dressing: In a separate small bowl, mix the non-fat Greek yogurt with the Dijon mustard until well combined.
- Combine Ingredients: Add the chopped celery, red onion (if using), and fresh herbs to the eggs. Pour the yogurt-mustard mixture over the egg mixture and stir gently to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Assemble the Sandwich:
- Lettuce Wrap Option: Place a large lettuce leaf on a plate, spoon some egg salad onto the leaf, and top with another lettuce leaf. Add tomato slices if desired.
- Zero Point Bread Alternative: Use a low or zero point bread option if available, or consider using a very small portion of whole grain bread. Spread the egg salad onto the bread and add lettuce leaves and tomato slices if desired.
Serving Suggestions:
- As a Lettuce Wrap: This keeps the sandwich completely zero points.
- With Low Point Bread: Check your Weight Watchers app for specific bread options that are low or zero points.
Tips:
- Flavor Enhancements: Add a dash of smoked paprika or a sprinkle of everything bagel seasoning for extra flavor.
- Meal Prep: Make a larger batch of the egg salad and store it in the refrigerator for quick and easy sandwiches throughout the week.
- Veggie Add-ins: Feel free to add other zero point vegetables such as diced bell peppers or cucumbers for added crunch and nutrition.
