First, prepare your hard boiled eggs. Place eggs in a pan with cold water covering the eggs to just an inch or two above the top of the eggs. Bring water to a full boil. When the water starts boiling, shut off the heat, cover, and allow to cook for 11-12 minutes.
Next, transfer the eggs to an ice bath (a large bowl of water with ice). Leave them there for at least 5 minutes before peeling.
Next, peel and dice your eggs. The egg whites and yolks will separate a bit (that's okay!).
In a blender or using an immersion blender in a small container, blend cottage cheese until smooth and creamy (you can leave the cottage cheese with curds if you want to!).
In a medium sized bowl, combine blended cottage cheese, dijon mustard, dill, chives, red onion, lemon juice, and salt and pepper. Mix until combined.
In a mixing bowl, mix chopped eggs and blended cottage cheese mixture.Serve with your favorite whole grain bread, crackers or in lettuce wraps!
