The Green Upgrade
Forget the heavy mayo—we’re using the “nature’s butter” for this one. This Guacamole Egg Salad takes the creaminess of ripe avocados and blends it with the satisfying protein of hard-boiled eggs. With a splash of lime to keep it bright and a hint of jalapeño for heat, this is the freshest way to do lunch. It’s vibrant, healthy, and incredibly filling.

The instruction
The Guac Base: In a medium mixing bowl, scoop out the avocado. Add the lime juice (this prevents browning!) and mash with a fork until you reach your desired consistency—I prefer a few small chunks for texture.
Prep the Eggs: Peel and roughly chop your hard-boiled eggs. If you like a creamier salad, chop them finely; for a rustic version, keep the pieces larger.
The Big Mix: Fold the chopped eggs, minced red onion, cilantro, and jalapeño into the avocado mash. Stir in the garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until everything is beautifully green and coated.
Serving: Scoop it onto toasted sourdough, tuck it into a whole-wheat wrap, or serve it in large lettuce cups for a low-carb option. This is best served immediately to enjoy the avocado’s peak freshness!
