Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Begin by placing your eggs in a pot and covering them with water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then lower the heat and let them simmer for 9-12 minutes. Once done, transfer the eggs to an ice bath for about 5 minutes.
- While the eggs cool, wash a fresh cucumber and dice it into small pieces. Place them in a colander to drain excess moisture for about 10 minutes.
- Once the eggs have cooled, peel them and mash them in a large mixing bowl until they reach a chunky yet creamy texture. Gradually mix in mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, fresh dill, salt, and pepper.
- Carefully fold the diced cucumber into the egg salad mixture while maintaining the crunch.
- Serve immediately in crisp lettuce cups or alongside low-carb crackers. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days.

Notes
Chill the salad for 30 minutes before serving to enhance the flavor meld.
