Then try this: Substitute a small ripe avocado for mayo the next time you make egg salad. Add a little pinch of salt and/or your desired healthy seasoning or fresh herbs. It is absolutely delicious + extremely nutritious! Please let me know what you think ...

    Love both ingridients, so I will have to try it out sometime.

    I wish some company would come up with an avocado spread like mayonaise so I can just put that on sandwiches instead.

    Better fresh, it a company bottled it just think of the sodium and all non healthy ingredients they would add.

    I currently make egg salad using avocado rather than mayo (LOVE IT!), and I PLAN to make deviled eggs for 4th of July using avocado w/the yolks and just a dash of wasabi mayo. YUMMMMMM!

    I've used avocado in place of mayo with tuna, as well - that's just as good!

    I'd like to thank everyone for the ideas. I've only recently begun to realize the wonders for avocado. So, I've been looking for ways to incorporate it into my diet more. Thank you!!!!

    Try making your own avocado spread:

    1/2 Hass avocado, pitted
    2 tablespoons white balsamic or white wine vinegar- I usually use tarragon vinegar
    1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh oregano or basil
    1 tablespoon fat-free plain Greek yogurt
    2 large cloves garlic, minced

    Poached Egg + Avocado on Toast

    I think this is also a great recipe, with a few minor changes. Whole Wheat Toast with avocado spread + poached egg!
    Yum :9

    That'd be great for a Dr. Suess themed party, and yummy too! Lite-version Guac filling instead of yolk :9
