Description

A protein-packed twist on classic egg salad, featuring creamy avocado, hard-boiled eggs, and warm curry flavors for a nutritious, no-cook meal.


Ingredients

  • 4 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
  • 1/2 large avocado, cubed
  • 1/2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons relish or finely chopped pickles
  • 2 teaspoons chopped red or green onion
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 3/4 to 1 teaspoon curry powder (adjust to taste)
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • Ground black pepper, to taste
  • Optional additions: fresh dill, chopped celery, raisins


Instructions

  1. Ensure your hard-boiled eggs are peeled and chopped to your desired consistency.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped hard-boiled eggs, cubed avocado, Dijon mustard, relish (or pickles), chopped onions, apple cider vinegar, and curry powder.
  3. Using a fork, gently mash the ingredients together. You can leave some avocado chunks for texture, or mash until mostly smooth, as per your preference.
  4. Season the mixture with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Adjust the curry powder if you desire more warmth.
  5. Stir in any optional additions like fresh dill, celery, or raisins now.
  6. Serve your curried avocado egg salad immediately, or chill it in the refrigerator for a short period before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Notes

  • This recipe assumes hard-boiled eggs are pre-cooked; boiling eggs takes about 10 minutes if needed.
  • Adjust curry powder for spice level; start with 3/4 teaspoon for mild flavor.
  • Optional additions like raisins add sweetness, while celery provides crunch.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
  • Best served on whole grain bread, lettuce wraps, or with crackers for a high-protein snack.
