Ingredients

• 4 large Eggs
• 1 large Avocado
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 3 tablespoons Greek yogurt
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons Green onion
• 1 stalk Celery
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Fresh dill (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over medium heat, then cover the pan and remove it from the heat. Let the eggs sit in the hot water for 10 minutes to ensure they are fully cooked.

Step 2

After 10 minutes, drain the hot water and transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool for about 5 minutes.

Step 3

While the eggs are cooling, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl. Mash the avocado slightly with a fork.

Step 4

Add the lemon juice, Greek yogurt, and Dijon mustard to the mashed avocado and mix until well combined.

Step 5

Finely chop the green onion and celery. Add them to the avocado mixture along with salt, black pepper, and optional fresh dill. Mix well.

Step 6

Peel the cooled eggs and chop them into small pieces. Add the chopped eggs to the avocado mixture and gently fold everything together until well combined.

Step 7

Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Serve the avocado egg salad chilled on whole grain bread, as a wrap, or over a bed of lettuce.
