Ingredients

  • 7 hard cooked eggs, completely cooled
  • ½ stalk celery, about 4-inches, cut in 1-inch pieces
  • ⅓ cup low-fat mayonnaise
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon-style mustard
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon freshly ground white or black pepper

Preparation

  1. Remove shells from eggs and discard. Cut eggs in quarters and reserve.
  2. Place the celery in the work bowl of a Cuisinart Food Processor. Pulse to chop finely, about 15 times; scrape the work bowl.
  3. Add the quartered eggs to the work bowl; pulse 5 times to chop roughly. Add mayonnaise, mustard, salt, and pepper. Pulse until mayonnaise and mustard are completely mixed in and desired texture is reached, 10 - 20 times.
