Basic Egg Salad – Low Carb

Egg Salad is a quick and easy low carb lunch that provides a good source of fat and protein for a keto diet.

Egg Salad is by far one of my favorite sandwiches. While I normally don’t eat bread on a low carb diet, this is a sandwich I’ll make an exception for, with low carb bread of course. This recipe is also a great substitute for potato salad. It doesn’t quite have the same texture, but when paired up with some good bbq, it is beyond sufficient. This egg salad is also great on it’s own as a lunch, or turned into a lettuce wrap. No matter how you decide to serve up your egg salad, this recipe is a keeper.
