Egg Salad Sauerkraut Romaine Wraps
Looking for a light yet protein-packed filling meal? Look no further! Today I shall present to you a delicious new twist on an old favorite…the egg salad sandwich.
Egg Salad Sauerkraut Romaine Wraps
Ingredients:
-
6 hard-boiled organic eggs
-
-
cayenne pepper (to taste)
-
garlic powder (to taste)
-
onion powder (to taste)
-
sea salt (to taste)
-
fresh ground black pepper (to taste)
-
Optional: pickle relish (1-2 tsp.)
-
Sauerkraut (preferably raw)
-
Optional: hot sauce (we like Frank’s)
Directions:
1. Hard boil the eggs: my technique is to place the eggs in a pot filled with cold water (leave lid off) and place on stove-top on medium/high heat; once the water is boiling, place the lid on the pot and move the pot to a cool burner and let sit for 10-15 minutes.
2. Peel and chop hard boiled eggs; mix all ingredients in a re-sealable bowl (except for sauerkraut and hot sauce). Chill for at least 6 hours but preferably overnight (don’t skip this step ~ chilled egg salad is SO much better than lukewarm!).
3. Place egg salad mixture in middle of romaine leaf; add desired amount of raw sauerkraut and hot sauce; roll up like a burrito and eat!

Hi Serena! Thanks for the feedback and I hope you enjoy the recipe! The sauerkraut gives it a bit of tang and texture against the creaminess of the egg salad. Thanks for reading my blog!
