Ingredients
For the High-Protein Egg Salad:
6 hard-boiled eggs (rich in protein), peeled and chopped
1/4 cup organic mayonnaise (for a keto-friendly fat boost)
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp fresh lemon juice (adds tang and supports immunity)
1 tbsp chopped chives (plus more for garnish)
Himalayan pink salt and cracked black pepper to taste
For the Sandwich (Optional for Keto Diet):
4 slices of whole-grain bread or low-carb sourdough bread, toasted
Butter or crisp lettuce leaves (for a low-carb alternative)
β
Directions
Step 1: In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped eggs, organic mayo, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and chives. Mix gently to keep it chunky. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Tip: Use free-range eggs for better nutrition and taste!
Step 2: Optional β spread a thin layer of grass-fed butter on one side of each toast slice, or layer with fresh romaine or butter lettuce for crunch and added fiber.
Step 3: Generously scoop the egg salad mixture onto two slices of toasted bread or lettuce wraps. Top with the remaining slices.
Step 4: Garnish with fresh chives. Slice and serve immediately as a low-carb lunch or pack for a meal-prep-friendly work lunch.
