Katerina's Kitchen: Greek Egg Salad
This delicious and healthy meal option is one of our family favorites, and it’s become a popular dish with our friends, too! With good protein and healthy fats, this meal is easy to make and inexpensive.
You will need:
2-3 hardboiled eggs, peeled and sliced
Olive Oil
Fresh squeezed lemon juice (About 1/2 lemon)
Feta Cheese (pre-crumbled or a fresh block)
Oregano
Thyme
Salt + Pepper
Instructions:
In a bowl, combine about 2-3 tablespoons of olive oil and the juice from about 1/2 lemon — this creates the “dressing” for your eggs. Mix well and taste to make sure the balance is to your liking. Too tart from the lemon? Add a bit more oil. Too bland? Add a squeeze more of juice. A light coating for the eggs is more than enough!
Next, add your sliced hard boiled eggs. You can also add in the seasonings to your liking — we prefer oregano, thyme and a dash of salt and pepper. You don’t need to use too much salt, since we’re using feta cheese. Sprinkle in the cheese to your liking, as well, using either pre-crumbled feta or breaking pieces off of a fresh block.
Give the salad a light toss to coat with the dressing.
This is a great option for those following a ketogenic diet!
To add in some carbohydrates, this dish is delicious with a piece of whole wheat bread (my favorite way is to toast it!)
Easy, simple, delicious and healthy!
