CREAMY AVOCADO EGG SALAD RECIPE
My go-to avocado egg salad is a delicious, healthier twist on classic egg salad. It is ultra creamy, thanks to rich nutritious avocado and a little Greek yogurt. No mayo involved! And you'll love the bright flavors from fresh herbs and a squeeze of lemon juice. Hard-boiled eggs work best in this recipe, and I share all the tips for how to boil eggs. To serve, make a loaded egg salad sandwich, scoop it onto a bed of greens, spread it onto your morning toast, or eat it by itself!

Steps:
- Hard boil the eggs and peel them. Put the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with water. Bring to a rolling boil (I add about 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt to the water, which helps prevent the eggs from cracking and also helps to peel them). Turn the heat off, cover and allow the eggs to sit in the hot water for 10 to 12 minutes, then drain. Run cold water over your eggs and break the shells off to peel.
- Chop the eggs up and put them in a medium mixing bowl.
- Slice the avocado in half and remove the pit. With a spoon, scoop the avocado flesh out and discard the peels. Chop the avocado and put in the bowl with the eggs. Immediately add the lemon juice on top of the avocado (this will help keep the avocado from turning brown too quickly). Mash the avocado a little bit.
- Add the Greek yogurt, celery, shallot, parsley, and dill. Season with kosher salt, black pepper and a good pinch of red pepper flakes (I am using Aleppo-style pepper). Add a small drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Mix everything well with a spoon or fork. Serve at room temp or cover and chill for later.
- To make this into a sandwich (optional), simply scoop the egg salad onto your favorite bread (I like to add some lettuce and more fresh herbs in my sandwich).

EGG SALAD AND AVOCADO SANDWICHES
This twist on the classic comes together incredibly fast while the addition of avocado adds healthy fat and body to an already delicious sandwich. You can use any kind of bread you want, but my recipe calls for a buttery, flaky croissant - that way it can be served for lunch or at happy hour.

Steps:
- Soft-boil the eggs: Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Gently lower each egg into the boiling water with a large spoon. Immediately set a timer for 6 minutes 30 seconds. Meanwhile, prepare a large bowl of ice water. When the timer goes off, drain the eggs and submerge them in the ice bath until cooled. Peel the eggs and transfer to a medium bowl.
- While the eggs cook, toast the croissants: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the croissants split-side down in a single layer and cook until toasted, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Make the egg salad: Break the eggs into smaller pieces with a large spoon. Add the avocado, mayonnaise, chives, hot sauce, and smoked paprika and gently mix until combined.
- Assemble the sandwiches: Fill the croissants with the egg salad and enjoy!
