Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 eggs
  • 1 green onion
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill or basil (or substitute 1/2 teaspoon dried dill)
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt (or additional mayo)
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt*
  • Black pepper

Instructions

  1. Hard-boil the eggs according to Perfect Hard-Boiled Eggs, Steamed Hard-Boiled Eggs, or Instant Pot Hard-Boiled Eggs.
  2. When the eggs are cooked and cooled, peel them and chop them roughly.
  3. Thinly slice the green onions. Chop the fresh dill or basil.
  4. In a bowl, stir together all ingredients. Taste and adjust seasonings as desired. Tastes best freshly made, or refrigerate for up to 3 to 5 days; after refrigerating, taste and add a little salt and/or mustard to refresh the flavors.

Notes

*If using all mayonnaise and no Greek yogurt, start with 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt or less, then add more to taste.
