Skinny Egg Salad Sliders
Cut back on the calories with these healthy Greek yogurt egg salad sliders on sweet, fluffy Hawaiian rolls!
So we all know that on game day, calories don’t count. We have buffalo ranch fries to the left, brown sugar chicken wings to the right, a plethora of beer and margaritas around the entire table, and lots and lots of ranch dipping sauce. But to balance it out, I bring you these easy skinny egg salad sliders.
By swapping out most of the mayo with plain Greek yogurt, this lightened up egg salad saves you on a ton of calories and it doesn’t even taste “healthy”. And I added some fresh Roma tomatoes for some color and of course, to sneak in some veggie goodness. And you can’t forget about the King’s Hawaiian slider buns!
King’s Hawaiian is the MVP of game day entertaining. They’re so versatile – perfect on their own (believe me, I’ve had a dozen of these in the blink of an eye while watching TV!), or as part of a dish, like in these game day sliders. They’re incredibly soft and fluffy, with just the right touch of sweetness, making them the perfect complement to virtually any Big Game recipe!

Egg salad totally brings me back to being a kid, we had it all the time, even now it’s one of my favorite go-to sandwiches. Seriously love that you lightened it up, Greek yogurt is a life saver!!
Egg salad sandwiches are one of my most favorite sandwiches. This version looks incredible! King’s Hawaiian rolls are always a hit at my house, so I know these sliders would be gone it no time!
Egg salad (one of my favorite quick, easy lunches or dinners) does not get enough love! I never thought to turn it into a party food, but since people go crazy for King Hawaiian (the ONLY bun my family will use for leftover thanksgiving turkey sammies) I know these would be a hit!
These look great!
So simple and delicious and a liiiiittle bit lighter! I find that when swapping some of the more fatty ingredients for other options, the result gets just as lovely, and usually extra indulgent because you can add a little extra and still it’ll be better than the original 😀
Might try this out despite having to make do with the Hawaiian rolls 😛 I have never made egg salad before actually, which is…odd now that I think about it, it’s so tasty! Thanks for the inspiration 🙂 x
Love these little sliders! I haven’t had an egg salad in FOREVER but I’m going to rectify that today. Thanks for the inspiration!
