Low Calorie Egg Salad

All too often the only types of salads that get allowed into our new, healthy weight loss plan are the vegetable varieties - those which contain chiefly three to five ingredients: lettuce, tomato, celery, cucumber and shredded carrot.

While this mix is indeed super low in caloric values - it can get boring, whether three, four or the full-Nellie is combined.

So let's switch gears on that note and talk about other types of salad which are commonly banned from the weight loss plan - such as chicken and egg salads.

When prepared with healthy ingredients, both can fit nicely into the most respectable diet plan.

Let's get to cooking, shall we?

Begin by toasting a couple of slices of whole wheat bread to create our tasty egg salad sandwich which will contain our low calorie egg salad recipe.

Begin with boiled eggs - separating the white from the yolks.

The dash of mustard adds taste and color to the egg salad.

Pickle relish is optional.

This egg salad can be taken up a notch by adding pimento, sliced green or black olives or finely chopped capers.

Ingredients for this Low Calorie Recipe:

 

3 egg whites (removed from boiled eggs & chopped or mashed with a fork)

1 Tablespoon of Miracle Whip Light

Salt & Pepper to suit personal taste

1 teaspoon of sweet pickle relish

1 teaspoon of yellow mustard

1/2 cup of finely chopped raw spinach (baby spinach)

 

As a note, for something different, try 'frying' a couple of egg white in a non-stick pan with butter flavored cooking spray, then place between two slices of fresh white bread that have been spread with a spoon of Miracle Whip LIGHT.

 

Salt & pepper as desired.

 

Calories will vary depending upon the brand of bread used.
