Spring Recipe Blog Hop: Dairy-Free Avocado Egg Salad

Spring Recipe Blog Hop: Dairy-Free Avocado Egg Salad

Happy First Day of Spring y’all!

This week’s schedule is a little different due to some pre-scheduled posts, but today we have a great spring recipe blog hop and I’ll be back Thursday with our spring home tour! So much goodness this week!

I’m excited to share the blogosphere with some amazing ladies that have come together to bring you a collection of awesome spring recipes! There is a list of the participating blogs at the end of the post and you can hop around and check out all of the goodies!

As most of you know I’ve done several rounds of Whole30 over the past two years and during that journey I have perfected a super simple, dairy-free egg salad recipe using avocados. I love egg salad and this is a delicious alternative to the traditional version that calls for lots of mayo. Don’t get me wrong, I love mayo (yay Duke’s) but I also love having a healthier option that is equally yummy!

Now for the simplest of recipes…

Ingredients

1. 1 ripe avocado (soft, not mushy)

2. 2 hard boiled eggs

3. 1/4 tsp sea salt

4. 1 tsp minced garlic

5. Juice of 1/2 lemon (or to taste)

6. Radishes and seasoning for garnish

7. Toast of your choice

Instructions

Chop up the boiled eggs and avocado and mash together in a bowl until you achieve your desired consistency. Then stir in the garlic, salt and lemon juice. Now slather it on top of your favorite toast and ENJOY! I love Ezekial sprouted wheat bread. Or if you are gluten free just skip the bread and serve over a bed of lettuce. Easy Peasy!

I like to top my with fresh radishes and my Everything But The Bagel seasoning. Crushed red pepper or paprika are also great toppings if you don’t have the bagel seasoning.

NOTE: You can add the salt and lemon juice a little at a time to see how much you prefer…and you can always add more. The egg to avocado ratio can also be adjusted. If you prefer more egg I would suggest using 3 eggs to 1 avocado.

So what do you think? Egg salad without the mayo?!?! Would you try it?
