Ingredients:
For the Avocado Egg Salad:
1 ripe avocado, mashed
2 tablespoons mayonnaise (choose a keto-friendly option)
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Salt and pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons chopped chives or green onions
1 tablespoon lemon juice (to prevent the avocado from browning)
For Serving:
Keto-friendly bread (homemade or store-bought)
Lettuce leaves (optional, for extra crunch)
Additional chives or green onions, for garnish
Instructions:
Prepare the Eggs:
Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then cover, turn off the heat, and let sit for 12 minutes. Transfer the eggs to an ice bath to cool. Peel and chop the eggs.
Make the Avocado Egg Salad:
In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed avocado, chopped eggs, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, chives (or green onions), lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until well combined.
Toast the Keto-friendly Bread:
Toast the keto-friendly bread slices until golden and crispy. This step is optional but adds a nice texture to the dish.
Assemble the Sandwich:
Spread a generous amount of avocado egg salad on one slice of the toasted keto-friendly bread. If using, add lettuce leaves for extra crunch.
Top with another slice of bread, or serve open-faced, garnished with additional chives or green onions.
