Avocado Egg Salad

Avocado egg salad is the California take on a classic — creamy avocado folded into chopped eggs with a little mayo, Dijon, and lemon, bright and fresh instead of heavy. It’s the sandwich filling that tastes like sunshine.

Chef Emily presents Avocado Egg Salad

The California twist on a classic

Chopped eggs folded with creamy avocado, a touch of mayo, and lemon — avocado egg salad, bright and fresh.

Step by stepInstructions

  1. Place the eggs in a pot, cover with water, bring to a boil, and cook 10 minutes. Cool in ice water, then peel and chop.
  2. In a bowl, lightly mash the avocado with the mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
  3. Fold in the chopped eggs and chives.
  4. Serve on toasted sourdough with arugula.

💡 Chef tips & storage

Use a ripe-but-firm avocado and mash it just a little — chunks add texture. Serve on toasted sourdough with arugula.
