A Weight Watchers (WW) Zero Point Egg Salad is a light and healthy version of a classic egg salad, designed to be low in points or even zero points depending on the ingredients used. Here’s a recipe for a simple and tasty WW Zero Point Egg Salad:
Ingredients:
- 6 hard-boiled eggs (choose large eggs)
- 1/4 cup plain fat-free Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (optional, for a tangy kick)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (for freshness)
- 1/4 cup chopped celery (for crunch)
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions (for added flavor)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- Fresh herbs like parsley or dill (optional)
Instructions:
- Hard Boil the Eggs: Place eggs in a pot and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 10-12 minutes. Remove from heat and cool the eggs in an ice bath or under cold running water.
- Prepare the Salad: Peel the cooled eggs and chop them into small pieces. Place the chopped eggs in a mixing bowl.
- Mix the Dressing: In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Combine: Add the Greek yogurt mixture to the chopped eggs. Then, stir in the chopped celery, green onions, and any fresh herbs you want to use.
- Taste and Adjust: Adjust seasoning to your liking with extra salt, pepper, or lemon juice.
- Serve: Enjoy your egg salad on a bed of greens, as a sandwich with low-calorie bread, or as a dip with veggies or crackers.
Points:
- The egg salad is typically zero points on Weight Watchers if you use fat-free Greek yogurt and no added oil or mayo. Always check your WW plan for specific updates or point changes.
