Green Goddess Egg Salad

Green Goddess Egg Salad


  • Yield: makes 4 cups of egg salad, plus extra dressing 1x

Ingredients

Scale

For the Dressing:

  • ½ of a ripe avocado
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt (I like 2%)
  • 2 tablespoons mayo
  • 1 cup baby spinach
  • 1 cup Italian parsley
  • ½ cup chives
  • 1 tablespoon tarragon
  • 1 garlic clove
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

For the Egg Salad:

  • 12 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and chopped
  • ⅓ cup green goddess dressing (or more, depending on the consistency you like)

For Sandwiches:

  • Multigrain bread, sliced and toasted
  • Sliced tomatoes
  • Microgreens and additional chopped chives, for garnish

Instructions

For the Dressing:

  1. Place all ingredients in a food processor and pulse/run the machine, occasionally stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl, until the mixture is creamy and smooth. Adjust the seasoning, as necessary.
  2. Transfer the dressing to an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to one week or until you are ready to use it.

For the Egg Salad:

  1. Combine the chopped and peeled hard-boiled eggs and as much of the green goddess dressing as you like in a bowl. I recommend starting with ¼ cup of the dressing and adding more as you see fit.
  2. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.

For Sandwiches:

  1. Pile the egg salad on top of toasted slices of bread. Top with sliced tomatoes and a sprinkling of microgreens. Season the tomatoes with a little salt. Serve as open-faced sandwiches or cut into smaller pieces for appetizers.
