These Low Carb Egg Salad Lettuce Wraps are gluten free and super easy to make! This recipe is perfect for meal prepping lunches for the week!
Ok you guys, summer is in full swing! If you’re like me and you want a quick and easy lunch that is light and refreshing, then this recipe is for you!
Egg Salad…I love it, honestly I haven’t made it in quite some time since going Gluten Free. Normally I would have it on bread as a sandwich. Now I now there are plenty of Gluten Free breads out there, but I personally try not to eat those a lot. Mostly because of the high carbs.
I don’t know about you, but for me when it’s summer time I try not to eat so many carbs, well because frankly I don’t want to look like an elephant in a swim suit.
I just feel less bloated and feel lighter when I’m not eating a lot of carbs. So I decided to use these big beautiful Romaine Leaves for a wrap. You can use any type of large lettuce leaf.
You can also play around with different ingredients, if you don’t like the onions, take them out. I like the oniony taste, it’s not over powering though.
I also use Tarragon as one of the spices in this Egg Salad. Tarragon is a must for any egg recipe.
I haven’t found any other use for it yet, if you know what else I can use Tarragon for, let me know in the comments below and I’ll try and make a dish with it!
And don’t forget if you make this, take a picture and Hashtag it #Tastefulventure on Instagram so I can see!
Enjoy!

This is great! I had no lemon juice on hand, but I did have banana pepper brine, so I added that instead, to try it out. Super delicious!

Hi, love this dish. Tarragon can be used in a sauce to pour over white fish or chicken or even pork. You can also sprinkle tarragon on chicken and on white fish or into a salad which contains chicken. It’s versatile. It can also be sprinkled into a green salad with crumbled hard boiled egg or chicken.
Sara says
Yes indeed, love how versatile this seasoning is!

This is an easy, delicious egg salad recipe that wins every time. The addition of the bacon adds the perfect crunch…I don’t miss the bread at all! And the zip of the mustard adds much needed flavor and keeps the dish from being too heavy. I love these wrapped up in a large romaine leaf or on top of a bed of spinach.
Thank you for providing so many easy and delicious recipes!
