Making summer egg salad is a great way to put all the fresh eggs from your chickens to use. It’s easy, affordable, and this recipe has fewer calories because the mayonnaise is supplemented with yogurt. Whip up this quick summer egg salad to bring to a summer picnic or potluck for a crowd pleasing dish. I like to mix and serve it in a pretty bowl like this for less clean-up. Offer the egg salad with crackers or on bread for a more substantial meal. My whole family loves it!

Remove eggs from the hot water and add them to a new bowl. Add cold water and/or ice to the bowl and place it in the freezer for 15 minutes. Remove bowl from the freezer and drain the water.
