Avocado Egg Salad

I've always loved egg salad, but as I got older it was hard for me to get past the fact that it's a total calorie bomb. So, when I came across this healthier recipe that included greek yogurt and avocado I was sold!



Ingredients

2 hard boiled eggs, chopped
2 hard boiled egg whites, chopped
2 avocados, pitted and peeled
1 tbsp. of plain greek yogurt
1 tbsp. of fresh lemon juice
1-2 stalks of green onion, chopped
1/4 tsp. of dry mustard
Pepper to taste

Directions

In a medium sized bowl, combine the eggs, avocado, greek yogurt, lemon juice, green onion, and dry mustard. Mash it up with a fork, and sprinkle in pepper to taste.

    I love egg salad! I always add yellow mustard to mine :-) This lightened up version is a much try with the avocado in it!

    I like how this recipe sounds! I never think to make egg salad sandwiches but sounds good.

    I've never been an egg fan (except for the occasional breakfast sandwich), but my mom would seriously LOVE this! I am definitely sending it to her. Thanks!

    For some reason I don't like it with avocado. I use mostly dijon and yellow mustard and a bit of greek yogurt or mayo for mine!
