Total time: 15 min • Prep: 15 min • Cook: 0 min • Serves: 4 • Difficulty: Easy

Looking for a lighter version of egg salad that doesn’t sacrifice flavor? This mayo-free version utilizes silken tofu and mustard to add creaminess and richness while keeping calories in check. Serve this on toasted bread, wrapped in a crisp lettuce leaf, or served over salad for a quick lunch or as an easy side dish—it takes just 15 minutes to prepare. To make hard-boiled eggs, place the eggs in a saucepan, cover with water by 1 inch, and then bring to a boil over medium heat. When the water reaches a boil, cover the pan, and remove from the heat. Let the eggs sit in the water for 15 minutes. Run the eggs under cool water to stop them from overcooking, and then peel and prepare.
