Avocado Egg Salad

This Avocado Egg Salad from tinsuf is a creamy, fresh, and healthy twist on classic egg salad. Made with hard-boiled eggs, ripe avocado, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and fresh herbs, it is simple, satisfying, and perfect for a quick lunch, light dinner, or easy meal prep.

The avocado gives this salad a naturally creamy texture without needing heavy dressing, while the eggs add protein and make it filling. The lemon juice keeps the flavor bright and helps the avocado stay fresh, and the Dijon mustard adds a little tangy kick. It is a great recipe for sandwiches, toast, lettuce wraps, or a low-carb bowl.

Ingredients

4 large eggs, hard-boiled and peeled
1 medium avocado, ripe but firm, about 150g, diced
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon fresh dill or parsley, chopped
Salt, to taste
Cracked black pepper, to taste
Optional: 1 tablespoon minced red onion or green onion

Directions

Chop the hard-boiled eggs into bite-sized pieces and place them in a medium bowl. Add the diced avocado, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, fresh dill or parsley, salt, and cracked black pepper. Gently mix everything together until the ingredients are combined, keeping some avocado chunks for texture. If using red onion or green onion, fold it in at the end. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Serve right away for the freshest flavor, or chill for a few minutes before serving.

Storage Tips

This salad is best enjoyed fresh because avocado can brown over time. If you need to store it, place it in an airtight container, press plastic wrap directly on the surface, and refrigerate for up to 1 day. Add a little extra lemon juice before storing to help keep the color bright.
