Avocado egg salad is perfect for a quick lunch or picnic, served with crackers or as a sandwich/wrap—just like our classic Egg Salad and Chicken Salad recipes!

Avocados + Eggs = Delish!

I love avocados. I love eggs. So why not combine the two to make a tasty lunch idea?! Avocado egg salad is a game changer, just a step up from our classic Egg Salad recipe. It’s healthy, filling, and incredibly tasty. There are so many ways to eat it. Serve it over lettuce for a lighter fare, or toast two thick slices of bread and spread it on for a more filling lunch or dinner idea. It’s great for packing and having on a picnic or lunch break. Not to mention, my kids love this recipe! It tastes great and is definitely kid-approved.

Recipe Tips

Use these tips to ensure the best recipe possible! Avocado. The best way to cut an avocado is to cube it in a criss-cross pattern (pictured above) and then spoon it out with a big spoon. It comes out perfectly cubed and ready to use. Cut the avocado right before serving because it will brown if kept out too long. Hard-boiled eggs. For perfect hard-boiled eggs that are easy to peel and have no gray rings, use our perfect hard-boiled egg recipe!

Storing Tips

STORE. Place egg salad in an airtight container and keep it in the fridge for 3-5 days. I like to make a big batch of this avocado egg salad recipe and eat it for lunches during the week.
