Ingredients

Salad Ingredients

  • 5 hard boiled eggs
  • 2 ripe avocados
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp ground mustard
  • ¼ tsp cracked pepper
  • Sea salt to taste
  • Optional: crushed red pepper

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a medium bowl, add the hard boiled eggs, peeled and roughly chopped, together with the ripe avocados. Sprinkle in the onion powder, ground mustard, cracked pepper, and sea salt.
  2. Mix and Mash: Using a fork, press down on the eggs to break them into smaller pieces. Stir the mixture thoroughly to blend the eggs with the creamy avocado until the desired consistency is achieved.
  3. Adjust and Serve: Taste the salad and add more seasoning if needed. If you plan to save it, add a squeeze of lemon juice to prevent the avocado from browning. Enjoy immediately or within one to two hours for the best freshness.

Notes

  • For added spice, sprinkle with crushed red pepper flakes.
  • Adding lemon juice when storing helps prevent avocado from browning.
  • Serve as a sandwich filling, on crackers, or over a bed of greens.
  • Use ripe avocados for the creamiest texture.
  • Consume within 1-2 hours for optimal freshness.
