Egg Salad For Egg Day?

[cab0ad 3]

I'm able to start eggs tomorrow and egg salad sounds dreamy! I don't really know how to make egg salad but I think it has mayo/mustard. anyone have a recipe for egg salad they use that doesn't have any harsh ingredients for my sleeve to start out on?

I take the yolk out, and chop up the white part. Then, I mash the cooked yolk in a bowl, add mayo/mustard and a bit of salt and pepper until you have a thick, creamy mixture. Add the cooked egg whites, and stop together. I'm sure one egg will be all you can get down. I'm just concerned about the mayo upsetting your new tummy, let me know how it goes!

mayo might be bad? my nut had mayo on a list of approved foods to add to tuna/chicken to help it go down. I didn't think of it being upsetting. maybe I'll just try a scrambled one for a while...

gosh, egg salad sounds good though!

I'd say mayo is a not an option. It's pure fat! Keep away til you reach your goal.

I love egg salad, but I still can't tolerate eggs (7 wks). Take small bites & eat slowly until you know it's going down smoothly!! Ps. My NUT had mayo on the approved food list, but I like the light version cuz it tastes the same!! Oh, to make it I use a fork to mash up the whole egg, add mayo, mustard, salt, pepper & a dash of paprika

I put the eggs, light mayo, dill relish with some juice for flow, salt and pepper ALL in my mini blender and just went to town until is was smooth. It was awesome. Sat very well.

"Light" mayo has 35 calories per serving of which 32 of those calories comes from fat. Like I said mayo is all fat. "Light is a marketing gimmick.
