💡 Tips for the Best Avocado Egg Salad
Use ripe but firm avocado for the best texture. Avoid overmixing because keeping a few avocado and egg pieces intact gives the salad a more satisfying texture. Fresh lime juice not only adds brightness but also helps slow the avocado from browning. For extra flavor, try adding a little Dijon mustard, chopped celery, fresh parsley, or a pinch of paprika. If you enjoy some heat, a few red pepper flakes or diced jalapeños work beautifully.
🍽️ Serving Ideas
Serve this creamy egg salad in lettuce cups, alongside sliced cucumbers, or over a bed of mixed greens. It also makes a delicious filling for low-carb wraps or keto-friendly bread.
