It seems really old school to be talking about an egg salad but this new age recipe takes eggs to a whole new level. Try it warm, instead of Eggs Benedict for a lazy weekend breakfast or cold on toasted bread (think bruschetta style) for lunch or as a meal starter.
Avocado, fresh herbs and a topping of your favourite Everything Avocado Seasoning is guaranteed to be a crowd pleaser.
Ingredients
1 medium avocado peeled and pitted
3 hard boiled eggs peeled and chopped
2 tablespoons of sour cream (you can use Greek yogurt or a lite mayonnaise instead)
1 teaspoon of fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon of finely chopped herbs (parsley, coriander, dill, chives - whatever you like)
Everything Avocado Seasoning (I used the Everything Avocado Spicy)
Instructions
In a bowl, mash the avocado with a fork to almost a guacamole type consistency. You can leave the avocado a little chunky if you prefer.
Add the sour cream, lemon juice, herbs and salt and pepper to taste and mix through with a spoon. Add your chopped egg to the avo mix and stir through gently.
Serve on whole-grain toast, bagels, or bruschetta styled baguettes (or eat it straight from the bowl). Top with a sprinkle of your favourite Everything Avocado seasoning.
Tip - hard boiled eggs left in their shell will keep in the fridge for up to a week. Keep a few hard boiled eggs on hand and whip up a tasty avo egg salad for lunch in the time it takes you to toast your favourite bread.
