Ingredients
Instructions
-
Prepare the eggsPlace eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover with water about 1 inch above the eggs. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 9 minutes. Transfer eggs to an ice bath to cool before peeling and roughly chopping.
-
Mash the avocadosIn a large bowl, mash the avocados with a fork until mostly smooth but still with some small chunks for texture. Immediately stir in the lemon juice to prevent browning.
-
Combine the base ingredientsAdd the Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to the mashed avocados. Stir until well combined and creamy.
-
Add vegetables and herbsFold in the diced red onion, celery, and chopped dill, mixing gently to incorporate all ingredients evenly throughout the mixture.
-
Incorporate the eggsAdd the chopped hard-boiled eggs to the mixture. Fold them in gently to maintain some texture and chunks of egg rather than completely incorporating them.
-
Adjust seasoningTaste the egg salad and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice according to your preference.
