Diet Egg Salad

Submitted by David McCarthy, Australia



Diet egg salad is living proof that eggs are not off limits to those of us watching our weight. In fact, I'd rather present it as a standard recipe because it is so tasty, but that would be denying weight watchers the opportunity to try it.

The use of curry powder in this recipe gives it an extra "zip" that will leave a long after-taste to remind you how nice this dish really is.

The recipe uses diet mayonnaise but that can be substituted if you prefer. You can also add chopped tomato and basil with extra virgin olive oil to give added color and flavor.

Just like all salads, it invites you to use your own artistic talents to make your own special version.


Ingredients

1 hard-boiled egg, peeled & chopped

3 Tablespoons low-fat cottage cheese

1 teaspoon chopped parsley

1/2 teaspoon curry powder

1 dash salt

1 dash pepper

1 tablespoon diet mayonnaise

Method

In a small bowl, combine all ingredients.

Cover and keep chilled.

Serve mounded in lettuce leaves or with French bread.

This recipe produces one portion of diet egg salad.
