Ingredients
  

For the Salad
  • 1 large Avocado Adds creaminess and healthy fats; consider using mashed banana for a kooky twist!
  • 4 large Eggs Provide protein and structure; hard-boiled eggs work best.
  • 1 tablespoon Greek Yogurt Serves as a creamy binder replacing mayonnaise.
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice Infuses acidity and freshness; vinegar can be used as a substitute.
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon Mustard Offers a zesty punch; yellow mustard as a substitute.
  • 1/4 cup Fresh Herbs (Parsley) Feel free to swap for dill or chives if preferred.
  • 1/4 cup Red Onion Adds a crunchy bite; use green onions for a milder sweetness.
For Serving
  • 1 package Multigrain Crackers Perfect for scooping.
  • 4 leaves Lettuce Leaves Ideal for low-carb wraps.

Equipment

  • Instant Pot

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Begin by hard boiling your eggs using the Instant Pot method for perfectly cooked eggs. Place the eggs on the trivet inside the pot, add 1.5 cups of water, and set to cook on Manual for 4 minutes. Allow for a natural pressure release for 4 minutes, then transfer the eggs to an ice bath to cool down before peeling.
  2. Once the eggs have cooled significantly, carefully peel the shells off and chop the eggs into bite-sized pieces.
  3. In a separate mixing bowl, scoop out the ripe avocado and use a fork to mash it until smooth and creamy.
  4. Add the chopped eggs to the mashed avocado bowl. Stir in Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard. Sprinkle in parsley and diced red onion. Gently fold the mixture together.
  5. Season your Herby Avocado Egg Salad with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust lemon juice based on your preference.
  6. Serve your Herby Avocado Egg Salad on crackers, toast, or in lettuce wraps.
