Carrageenan Free Whole30 Hard-Boiled Eggs with Salsa Verde

Hard-boiled eggs are a snack-time staple, but pairing them with a bright, herbaceous salsa verde takes them somewhere genuinely exciting. The sauce comes together with fresh flat-leaf parsley, briny capers, shallot, garlic, lemon zest, and good olive oil — it's punchy, vibrant, and absolutely no-fuss. Many store-bought condiments and sauces sneak in additives like carrageenan as a stabilizer or thickener, which makes finding a clean, compliant topping harder than it should be. Here, every single ingredient is whole and recognizable, so you can spoon it on freely without second-guessing the label. The technique for the eggs is foolproof too — a rolling boil, a covered rest, and an ice bath give you perfectly set whites and creamy yolks every time. Arranged on a plate and draped with that glossy green sauce, this dish looks far more impressive than the effort it requires. It works as a protein-packed snack, a light lunch, or an elegant starter that happens to be completely clean.
