Avocado Egg Salad

Jumpstart your day with Avocado Egg Salad for your breakfast!

Egg salad is one of the traditional salads that’s rich in protein and full of flavor. It is usually mixed with seasonings in the form of herbs and spices. Traditionally made of chopped hard-boiled eggs, mustard, minced celery and onion, paprika, salt, black pepper, and a good amount of mayonnaise. Egg salads are often used as a sandwich filling. It is also used as a topping on green salad.

Putting a twist on our favorite egg salad, we used avocados instead of mayonnaise. Aside from the fact that it is tastier than mayonnaise, Avocados are good source of potassium, lutein, folate, Vitamin C, Vitamin E and dietary fiber, loaded with heart-healthy monounsaturated fatty acids, the omega 3 fatty acids.
This is a great lunchtime lunchbox recipe and an awesome way to start your day. Make it in the morning and enjoy a healthy, delicious breakfast or lunch. It’s also perfect for a paleo brunch. This is a fantastic paleo alternative to traditional egg salad.

You’ll be surprised at how easy it is to make versus how delicious it is. Add some spice with a pinch of cayenne.
