  • 1/2 tbsp Curry Powder more to taste
  • 1 tsp Garlic Salt more to taste
  • 1/2 cup Celery chopped fine

  • 1/3 cup Fresh Dill snipped or chopped

Instructions
 

  • STEP ONE: Place 6 eggs in the bottom of a medium-size deep pan, cover with water, and 1 teaspoon of table salt (helps with easy eggshell removal). Bring water and eggs to a rapid boil...let boil for 1 minute then remove from heat, cover eggs with a lid, and let sit for 8-10 minutes. Drain hot water, cover hot boiled eggs with cool water and ice. Let sit until eggs are cool to the touch.
  • STEP TWO: While eggs are cooling, chop up celery and onions.
  • STEP THREE: Mix up light mayonnaise, garlic paste, curry powder, and garlic salt in a bowl.
  • STEP FOUR: When eggs are cool...peel and chop eggs up on a cutting board. When finished chopping place in a bowl, add chopped veggies, and drizzle curry-mayo dressing on top of chopped ingredients. Gently mix all up with a rubber spatula...scrapping sides to incorporate all the dressing into the chopped ingredients.

If you can't find fresh dill at your grocery store, use dried dill weed but use half as much as you normally would with fresh dill
