Egg Avocado Salad

This Egg Avocado Salad combines creamy avocado with protein-packed eggs for a fresh, nutritious meal that’s quick and easy to prepare.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons chopped red onion
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Place the eggs in a pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook for 10 minutes.
  2. Remove eggs from boiling water and place in an ice bath to cool completely. Peel and chop the eggs.
  3. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash with a fork until creamy but still slightly chunky.
  4. Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, red onion, and cilantro to the mashed avocado. Stir to combine.
  5. Fold the chopped eggs into the avocado mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes before serving for best flavor.

Notes

For extra texture, add a handful of toasted walnuts or serve the salad on toasted whole-grain bread for a satisfying sandwich.
