    Avocado Egg Salad!

    4 large hard-boiled eggs, chopped
    4 hard boiled egg whites, chopped (discard the rest)
    1 medium hass avocado, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
    1 tbsp light mayonnaise
    1 tbsp fat free plain yogurt
    1/2 tablespoon finely chopped chives
    2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
    1/2 tsp Kosher salt
    pinch freshly ground pepper

    Combine the egg yolks with the avocado, light mayo, yogurt, chives, vinegar, salt and pepper. Mash with a fork. Combine with egg whites and adjust salt as needed.

    Just had it tonight, actually :)

    I cut it up and put it in a egg burrito. OR with rice. Or mix it up with cream cheese and put on a wheat bagel. A wrap. Sandwich. I've also put it with a burger.

    My favorite thing to do with it is make guacamole..

    Scoop the avocado out and mash it up with a fork (make sure that the avocado is ripe though)
    add a tablespoon of sour cream
    teaspoon or so of lemon OR lime juice, doesn't matter
    salt and pepper to taste


    That's how I make it.. super easy and very yummy.

    They are amazing in guacamole. I also use them mashed in place of mayo for chicken salad sandwich (with green onion, fresh cilantro, and lime juice - OMG - sooooo yummy!)

    Cut it in half, remove the pit, lightly salt it, eat with spoon or fork.


    Seriously legit just like that.

    I used to be scared of them but now I absolutely love them.

    EXACTLY! Love them like this. Wrap second half and save in fridge for next day. (They do turn "brown" if exposed to air for long).

    I like them best in the half shell with a little salt or soy sauce. They are also really great in my cabbage cilantro slaw. YUM, I love me some avo!

    If I'm ordering in a restaurant and there is a sandwich or salad with bacon I just ask that they substitute avocado.

    I like mine mashed up and mixed with onion and garlic powder on a tuna sandwich with tomatoes, onions, and spinach.

    Avocado is AWESOME with tuna. I substitute it for half the mayo when I make tuna sandwiches. YUM!

    when I never tried an avocado before I would think they were gross but honestly when I tried it they were fantastic. As long as you get a good ripe one (Dark and not hard), cut it up into 4 slices, they taste amazing with a pinch of salt on them and eat em like that or with something else. Or you could mix them up and make a guacamole and use it as a dip. To me they taste good just plain as they are.

    Bumping to get some ideas as well....I have eaten them once and just peeled off the leaves and dipped them in garlic butter and suck off the bottom end. I believe that is how we did it...lol Maybe not the healthiest way to eat it but It was good though!!:happy:

    Please excuse my last post above...Oops(too late to delete)

    LOL...I am an idiot...I was thinking of an artichoke...lol I have never had an avacado!!:laugh:

    Agreed!!

    Or guacamole with a few chips. That's always a good place to start.

    I love them just cut in half with some salt and pepper. But they are yummy in salads, as guacamole, in a sandwich. Good stuff.
