A simple, no-mayonnaise recipe for egg salad using ripe avocado for a creamy texture.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large eggs, hard-boiled
  • 1 medium ripe avocado
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime or lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped celery
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped red onion
  • 1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 4 slices whole-grain bread

Instructions

  1. Peel and roughly chop the hard-boiled eggs. Place them in a medium bowl.
  2. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into the bowl with the eggs.
  3. Add the lime juice, Dijon mustard, celery, red onion, and chives to the bowl.
  4. Use a fork or a potato masher to gently mash the avocado and mix the ingredients together. Mash until you reach your desired consistency, leaving some chunks for texture.
  5. Season the mixture generously with salt and pepper. Mix well.
  6. Taste the salad and adjust seasoning if needed.
  7. Divide the avocado egg salad evenly between two slices of bread. Top with the remaining two slices of bread to make two sandwiches.

Notes

  • For a smoother texture, blend the avocado and lime juice first before mixing with the eggs.
  • Add a dash of hot sauce or a pinch of curry powder for a flavor variation.
  • If you prefer a lower-carb option, serve this salad in lettuce cups instead of bread.
  • You can prepare the hard-boiled eggs up to three days ahead of time.
