This Keto Avocado Egg Salad is a creamy, nutrient-dense dish packed with healthy fats and protein. With simple ingredients like ripe avocados, boiled eggs, and a touch of fresh herbs, this low-carb salad is perfect for a quick lunch or a healthy snack. It’s easy to prepare, incredibly satisfying, and can be enjoyed on its own or as a filling for lettuce wraps.

Ingredients
    For the Base:
  • 3 large eggs, hard-boiled and chopped
  • 1 medium avocado, ripe, peeled, and mashed
  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt for a lighter version)
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
  • ¼ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp onion powder
  • ¼ tsp salt, or to taste
  • ⅛ tsp black pepper, or to taste
    • For the Toppings (Optional):
  • 1 tbsp chives, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp bacon bits (for extra crunch and flavor)
  • 1 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
    Boil the Eggs
  1. 1
    Place eggs in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat and let them simmer for 10 minutes. Transfer eggs to an ice bath and let them cool for 5 minutes. Peel and chop into small pieces.
    2. Prepare the Avocado Base
  2. 2
    In a mixing bowl, mash the avocado until smooth but slightly chunky. Add mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt), Dijon mustard, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
    3. Combine Ingredients
  3. 3
    Fold in the chopped eggs and mix gently until everything is evenly coated in the avocado dressing.
    4. Add Toppings & Serve
  4. 4
    Sprinkle chives, parsley, bacon bits, and Parmesan cheese (if using). Serve immediately on its own, with lettuce wraps, or over low-carb toast.
Note

Storage: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Since avocado browns over time, add extra lemon juice to keep it fresh.

Serving Suggestions: Enjoy as a dip, in lettuce cups, or with keto-friendly crackers.

Variations: Add diced celery for extra crunch or swap the mayonnaise with sour cream for a tangier taste.
