Sweet Southern-Style Egg Salad - great for Easter brunch

Sweet Southern-Style Egg Salad

Easter is right around the corner. I can’t believe how early it is this year.

I know that a lot of people end up with leftover hard boiled eggs after Easter and today’s Sweet Southern-Style Egg Salad would be a great option to use up the leftovers.

If you like egg salad, you definitely have to have a go-to recipe on hand. Today’s recipe is one we make in my family around Easter time. The sweet relish adds a nice twist to the salad along with tangy mustard and paprika. Instead of using all mayonnaise we like to substitute half plain yogurt and half mayonnaise. You can easily use all yogurt or all mayonnaise in the recipe depending on how healthy you want the recipe and how you like your egg salad to taste.

Sweet Southern-Style Egg Salad - sandwich style

Sweet Southern-Style Egg Salad is great on a sandwich {try croissants for a nice brunch idea}, over lettuce or as one of my readers mentioned, put it on crackers! This could be a really nice appetizer idea for your Easter brunch.

I am excited to be partnering with The Ohio Poultry Association to bring you today’s recipe. You can get the recipe here

[…] Unlike most cereals and yogurt, eggs only contain one ingredient – “eggs.” They don’t contain sugar or carbs, either. In fact, the protein in eggs is the highest-quality protein found in any food.  Prep for the week by making a batch of hard-boiled eggs to pack in lunches and use in recipes such as my easy Sweet Southern-Style Egg Salad!
