The runner up is the Avocado. For what is an Avocado Egg Salad with out the avocado? Am I right? The key to perfecting this recipe is to use ripe avocados. According to Love One Today’s Avocado Buying Guide, you want to pick one that is somewhat soft when applying firm yet gentle pressure to it in the palm of your hand. If it’s mushy, it’s too ripe, and if it’s hard as a rock, it’s underripe.
Then we pack in flavor with the Pickled Onions. you could substitute regular homemade pickles, or pickled jalepenos if you’d like. However the pickled red onions really add a nice flavor that compliments the egg and avocado well.
And then, we add in crunch with Celery. We have lots of soft ingredients in this recipe. From the hard-boiled eggs, to pickled onions, to the avocado… the celery really adds a much needed crunch. The trick to enjoying the celery in this is to cut it into really small bites. That way the egg salad still spreads well and isn’t too chunky and crunchy.
Lastly, we add in some lemon juice. This will help keep the avocado fresh if you store it as leftovers. And if you do have any of this salad leftover, be sure to enjoy it within 3 days.
