Avocado Egg Salad Sandwich Recipe
Make egg salad - The classic salad is just a simple combination of boiled eggs, mayo, chives and seasonings. However, to make a healthier version of this salad, I have substituted mayo with cottage cheese. It brings in the same creamy texture but with a delicious protein boost.
Make avocado egg salad - Simply mix together mashed avocados and egg salad, and you’ll get delicious avocado egg salad. The avocados also add more creaminess to the salad making it a lovely substitute for mayo.
Assemble sandwich - Pick your favorite bread and spread it with generously with the salad mixture. And done!
