Prepare the Base: In a small bowl, blend cottage cheese, Dijon mustard, pickle juice, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and a pinch of salt and pepper. This creamy mixture forms the heart of your salad.
Chop and Combine: Dice the eggs and finely chop the dill pickles and green onions. Add these ingredients into a medium bowl with the cottage cheese mixture. Mix gently to coat everything evenly.
Season and Serve: Taste the mixture and adjust salt and pepper as needed. For a smoother consistency, chill the salad in the fridge for 15 minutes before serving.
- For the creamiest texture, blend the cottage cheese before adding it to the egg salad. It creates a smooth consistency similar to mayonnaise but with more protein.
- To get perfect hard-boiled eggs, place the eggs in a pot of cold water, bring to a rolling boil, then remove from heat and let sit in the hot water for 10-12 minutes. Immediately transfer to an ice bath for easy peeling.
- Adjust the pickle juice to your preference for tanginess. Add a little more if you love that briny flavor!
- This recipe is versatile! Serve it in lettuce wraps, on a low-carb tortilla, or paired with avocado slices for an extra boost of healthy fats.
- For a crunchier texture, add chopped celery or radishes.
