A fresh and healthy twist on classic egg salad, combining creamy avocado with everything bagel seasoning, served in crisp lettuce wraps for a light and satisfying meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs, hard-boiled, peeled, and chopped
  • 1 ripe medium avocado, mashed but still chunky
  • 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt (dairy-free yogurt optional)
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1–2 teaspoons everything bagel seasoning (sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried garlic, onion flakes, sea salt)
  • 1 small green onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 8–10 butter lettuce or romaine leaves

Instructions

  1. Place 6 large eggs in a medium pot and cover with cold water about 1 inch above the eggs. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, turn off the heat, cover, and let sit for exactly 10 minutes.
  2. Drain the hot water and transfer eggs to a bowl of ice water for 5 minutes. Tap each egg gently on the counter and peel under running water to remove shells.
  3. Roughly chop the peeled eggs into bite-sized pieces.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, scoop out the flesh of 1 ripe avocado. Mash with a fork or potato masher until mostly smooth but still a bit chunky.
  5. Stir in 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt and 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice to the mashed avocado.
  6. Gently fold the chopped eggs into the avocado mixture until evenly coated but not mushy.
  7. Add 1 to 2 teaspoons everything bagel seasoning, 1 small sliced green onion, and 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill (if using). Season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust seasoning as needed.
  8. Wash and dry butter lettuce or romaine leaves carefully, keeping them whole and crisp.
  9. Spoon generous portions of the avocado egg salad onto each lettuce leaf. Fold or roll the leaves gently and serve immediately.

Notes

Use the off-heat steep method for boiling eggs to achieve tender whites and creamy yolks. Peel eggs under running water for easier shell removal. Mash avocado to a slightly chunky texture for best balance. Add seasoning gradually and taste as you go. Wash and dry lettuce leaves thoroughly to prevent sogginess. Salad can be made up to 2 days ahead and stored in the fridge; keep lettuce separate until serving.
