Crunchy Veggie Ranch Egg Salad Recipes

Steps:

• In a small bowl, soak the onions in cold water, for 15 minutes. Drain.
• Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, with a tight-fitting lid, place the eggs and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Bring to a boil and cook for 1 minute. Cover the eggs, remove from the heat, and set aside for 8 minutes. Drain the water from the pan and cool the eggs in the pan under cold running water. Peel the eggs and cut into sixths.
• In a large bowl, mix together the onion, celery, mayonnaise, dill, mustard, lemon juice, and salt.
• Add the eggs to the mayonnaise mixture and gently mix them together. Season with pepper to taste. Use in sandwiches, with lettuce and tomatoes, or in a salad.

Steps:

• In a small saute pan, cook the bacon over medium-low heat until almost crisp and the fat has rendered. Remove the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate, leaving the rendered fat in the pan. To the pan, whisk in the mustard, white wine vinegar, olive oil, salt, and black pepper, to taste. Remove the pan from the heat.
• Fill a medium saucepan 2/3 with water. Add the distilled white vinegar and bring to just barely a simmer. Cook's Note: like very active club soda.
• Crack an egg and place it into a small ramekin. Very slowly and gently place the egg into the water by placing the ramekin right next to the water and letting the egg slide out of the dish and directly into the water. The ramekin should be touching the water. Repeat with the remaining eggs. Each egg should cook for 3 1/2 minutes, exactly.
• In a large bowl, toss the greens with the tomatoes in the bacon dressing and divide the mixture among 4 salad plates. When the eggs are ready, carefully remove with a slotted utensil, and blot briefly on a paper towel to remove the excess vinegary water. Gently place an egg on top of each salad. Grind some black pepper on top of the eggs, top with lardons and serve.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together the mayo, ranch, pickle brine, garlic powder, cayenne, and black pepper. Mash in the eggs with the mayo mixture to desired consistency. Taste and season with additional pickle brine (for salt), as desired. Enjoy! Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, curry powder, to taste, and stir well to combine. Add the eggs and green onions and season with salt and pepper. Gently fold the eggs into the yogurt mixture and taste for seasoning.
• Lay 3 slices of bread on the work service. Divide the curried egg salad evenly among the bread slices, and top each slice with 1 piece red leaf lettuce. Top with the remaining slices of bread. Cut the sandwiches into quarters and serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine all ingredients; toss to coat. Refrigerate until serving.

Steps:

• Prepare the vegetables:
• Place cucumber, radishes, and scallions in a colander set inside a bowl of ice water. Press down on vegetables to submerge. Let soak, stirring occasionally, until very firm and crunchy, at least 15 minutes and up to 1 hour. Drain and pat dry.
• Meanwhile, cook beans in a large pot of boiling generously salted water just until their color intensifies and they are barely softened, about 1 minute. Using a slotted spoon, immediately transfer to a large bowl of salted ice water (use about 1 Tbsp. salt for every 2 quarts water).
• Return water in pot to a boil and repeat cooking process with sugar snap peas; add to bowl of ice water with beans. Let vegetables cool; drain and pat dry. Trim beans and remove strings from sugar snap peas. Slice into large pieces on a steep diagonal.
• Make the dressing and assemble:
• Whisk lime juice, oil, soy sauce, sesame seeds, and sugar in a large bowl; season dressing with salt and pepper. Add beans and peas and toss to coat. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Add cucumber, radishes, and scallions and toss to combine. Transfer to a platter.
• Do Ahead
• Beans and peas can be blanched 2 days ahead. Cover and chill. Dressing can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and chill.
