Eggs are one of the most versatile foods when it comes to keto. They can serve breakfast, lunch, or dinner depending on how you make them and they can be a vessel for almost any flavor. Today, we’re going to take a peek at how to make some smoked salmon egg salad. The smokiness from the salmon with the freshness of the herbs makes for a delicious dish that can be enjoyed any time of day!

I really like to make an accompanying savory mug cake to go along with these. Try to make a cylindrical 90-second mug bread, then cut into 3 or 4 slices. Fry each slice up in a pan (with some additional butter) and now you have some crispy “toast” to go along with your egg salad. If you’re trying to watch the calorie intake, feel free to spoon this over lettuce cups, wrap into collard greens, or just eat it straight from the bowl!

Yields 2 servings of Keto Smoked Salmon & Egg Salad

The Preparation

6 large eggs
4 ounce smoked salmon
5 tablespoon mayonnaise
2 tablespoon lemon juice
3-4 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
2 tablespoon chives, chopped
salt and pepper, to taste

The Execution

1. Hard-boil eggs using your preferred method. I used a hard-boil egg maker, but traditional hard-boiling works just fine.

2. Peel the eggs and then prep the ingredients by chopping eggs, finely mincing dill, and finely chopping chives.

3. Mix all of the ingredients together until well incorporated.

4. Optionally, make a 90-second mug bread in a cylindrical mug. Once cooled, cut into slices and fry up in butter to make a quick toast.

5. Serve as desired, garnishing with extra dill and chives. Enjoy!
