How to Make Avocado And Egg Salad

  1. Cut 1 ripe avocado into 1/2-inch chunks.
  2. Hard-boil 2 large eggs for 8-10 minutes. Once cool, peel and finely chop.
  3. Gently combine the avocado chunks and chopped eggs in a medium bowl.
  4. Add 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion, 2 tablespoons mayonnaise (or more, to taste), 1 tablespoon lime juice, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  5. Stir until well combined. Let the salad stand for 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Do not let it stand too long, as avocados may brown.
  6. Serve immediately on a bed of fresh lettuce for a vibrant salad.
  7. Garnish with a sprinkle of paprika for a touch of color and warmth.
