Greek Yogurt Egg Salad Recipe

Are you a fan of of Greek yogurt? This egg salad recipe with greek yogurt is right up your alley. The yogurt adds healthy probiotics and it’s a paleo friendly and perfect for lunch! Rather than using high fat mayo, the creamy texture of Greek yogurt is a nice healthy alternative. The tangy and tart yogurt flavor makes this probiotic egg salad recipe wonderfully bright and fresh. If you’re using non-fat Greek yogurt, then the recipe is even healthier and low fat. For more flavor and depth, we love adding a sprinkle of ground cumin. But the ground cumin is totally optional. To balance out the flavors and textures of this egg salad, we’ve added some crunch from celery and minced pickles. Add extra pickles if you like because the flavors from the minced pickles are fantastic. You can even spice up this recipe beyond the paprika. If you like, add some minced onion, chili powder, garlic salt, lemon pepper or your favorite blend of spices.
