Refreshing Herb & Egg Salad Wraps

Ingredients

- 6 large eggs
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup finely chopped celery
- 2 tablespoons chopped chives
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 large lettuce leaves (for wraps)

Instructions

1. Boil the Eggs:
- Place the eggs in a single layer in a medium-sized saucepan. Fill the pan with enough cold water to cover the eggs by about 1 inch.
- Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, cover the pan and remove it from the heat. Let the eggs sit in the hot water for 12 minutes.

2. Prepare an Ice Bath:
- While the eggs are cooking, prepare a large bowl with ice water. After the 12 minutes of cooking, transfer the eggs to the ice bath using a slotted spoon. Let them cool for about 5 minutes to stop the cooking process.

3. Peel and Chop Eggs:
- Gently tap each egg on a hard surface and roll it to crackle the shell. Peel under cold running water to remove any stubborn pieces.
- Chop the peeled eggs into small, bite-sized pieces and transfer them to a large mixing bowl.

4. Mix Ingredients:
- Add the mayonnaise, chopped celery, chives, parsley, dill, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the eggs.
- Gently fold all ingredients together with a spatula until well combined. Ensure the herbs and seasoning are evenly distributed.

5. Assemble the Wraps:
- Lay out the lettuce leaves on a clean surface. Spoon the egg salad mixture evenly across the center of each leaf.
- Carefully roll the lettuce leaves into wraps, tucking in the sides as you go to enclose the filling tightly.

6. Serve and Enjoy:
- Arrange the wraps on a serving platter and serve chilled or at room temperature.
