Chef Jenn
Creamy, protein-rich, and full of fresh flavor, this Avocado Egg Salad is the perfect lunch or light dinner. Made with hard-boiled eggs, avocado, green onion, parsley, and a zesty dressing with a hint of smoked paprika, it’s quick to make and endlessly versatile. Serve it on toast, in lettuce wraps, or straight from the bowl.

Ingredients
  

  • 6 hard-boiled eggs peeled and chopped
  • 1 avocado diced
  • 2 green onions sliced white and green parts
  • 2 tablespoons parsley chopped
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Mix the green onions, parsley, mayonnaise, sour cream, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, garlic powder, and smoked paprika in a medium-sized bowl until well combined.
  • Fold in the chopped eggs and diced avocado, being gentle so the avocado doesn’t get too mashed.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste, then give it a final stir and serve!

Notes

Chef Jenn's Tips

  • Use ripe but still firm avocado so it holds its shape when mixed—no one wants green mush.
  • Boil your eggs ahead of time and store them in the fridge for easy grab-and-go meal prep. I add cold eggs to cold water then bring them to a boil. Boil uncovered for 7 minutes, then turn off the heat, cover the pot and let them sit for 10 minutes. Perfection!
  • Smoked paprika adds a subtle smoky depth—don’t skip it! But if you love heat, try a pinch of cayenne instead.
