EQUIPMENT NEEDED

  • Large pot
  • large bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 6 eggs
  • ¼ cup mayo
  • cup dill pickles chopped
  • 1 tablespoon dijon or regular mustard
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • ½ teaspoon dried dill
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon paprika

Instructions
 

  • Place eggs in boiling water, then turn the heat off and let them sit for about 12 minutes. Drop them into an ice bath once they’re done.
  • Chop the eggs. I like mine roughly chopped.
  • Dice up the pickles. Go as chunky or fine as you want. Toss them in with the eggs.
  • Add your other ingredients. Mayo, mustard, dill, salt, pepper, and paprika; stir it all together until everything is coated.
  • Chill or serve. You can eat it right away, but I like letting it sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.

Notes

Storing
Storage: Keep it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
Meal prep: Divide into single-serve containers so you can just grab and go.
FAQs
Can I skip the mayo?
Totally. Use plain Greek yogurt, either nonfat or full-fat, whatever you like. Or do half and half. I’ve even done a little mashed avocado in a pinch.
Do I have to use dill pickles?
Nope! You can use whatever you love. I’m a dill pickle die-hard, but bread and butter pickles work too. Even spicy ones if you want a little heat.
