Skinny Avocado Egg Salad Wraps #SundaySupper

It’s time to get the “skinny” on yummy food. And in this case it’s something mixed with avocado.

I have a love affair with avocado. I could pretty much eat it daily, at every meal (and in between), and never grow tired of it. Which I guess is a good thing due to avocado’s and their amazing amount of protein, beneficial fats, carotenoids, heart healthy ways. A diet rich in Avocado also helps lower cholesterol levels, which is a good thing for my hubby.

When Brielle was really young, I introduced her to Avocado and she’s been enjoying it ever since. She just loves it.

So when I found out that we were doing a Skinny Sunday Supper, is was an easy decision to turn to something with Avocado.

This Avocado Egg Salad wrap is one of those things that I honestly really never measured out. I just kinda threw it all together. We throw things like this together a lot. And I’ve taught Brielle to do the same. We both knew that that this Avocado Egg Salad was one of

the skinniest thing we make and that it needed to make it’s debut on my blog. I have a tendency to take a classic recipe and twist it into something that isn’t traditionally done.

Of course with all this said, I’ve seen at least a dozen or more recipes for Avocado Egg Salad but they all called for mayo which is NOT calorie friendly. And you can substitute greek yogurt for the mayo, but you don’t even need to with this recipe – it calls for neither. It’s creamy and wonderful all on it’s own.

We serve it on whole what tortillas and with slices of onion, tomatoes and green pepper to garnish with you if you choose. Enjoy!

This is better than classic egg salad... it kicks it up a notch, makes it a little healthier and the flavor.... is amazing!

Ingredients

  • 1 medium avocado, sliced
  • 4 hard boiled egg yolks
  • 1/2 tsp Kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp. freshly ground pepper
  • 2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
  • 4 hard boiled egg whites, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon chives, finely chopped
  • lettuce
  • tortilla wrap or lettuce for wrap

Instructions

In a medium bowl, mash the avocado. Add the egg yolks and mash together.

Add the salt, pepper and red wine vinegar and blend together.

Stir in the egg whites and the chives.

Lay a piece of lettuce on the wrap. Spoon the avocado egg salad into the wrap. Roll it up and serve with sliced tomatoes. So good!

If you want to take it a step further, leave the wrap out and roll up in a lettuce wrap!

  1. Mmmm, love avocado, too! Not a hard boiled egg fan, but I have to try adding it to other salads like this – chicken, etc.

  2. I´d take avocado over mayo any day. The perfect egg salad Nicole! It would make the best wrap with a piece of chicken. Have a great sunday!

    • I think that’s what I love most about it – no MAYO so much healthier all on it’s own and avocado has so much more flavor than the mayo does in a traditional salad.
      SO good! Thanks hon!

  3. Egg Salad and Avocado? Oh, YES please! Love this combo and love the beautiful colors on your photos!

  4. Brielle…you and I can eat nothing but avocados…come visit!

  5. I love this combination. I would have never thought of combining those two. Thanks for such a delicious recipe.

  6. What a healthy idea for a weekday lunch or simple supper. I would never have thought to add avocado, but it would be a great replacement for the mayo if you used Greek yogurt as you say.

  7. I absolutely love avocados as well! I have never been a big egg salad fan, but I am quite sure I would love this version! Sounds wonderful.

  8. Great idea! I want this for lunch and I haven’t even had breakfast yet.

  9. This looks so good, Im making it for lunch today. lol My chickens gave me 3 eggs this morning and I have an avocado. Yum!

  10. WOW! These are not ingredients I would typically put together but your photos make me think differently. Think I’ll have to try this! Thanks for the post and the inspiration :)

  11. Ooooooh….I have those 100 cal packs of wholly guacamole in the fridge and you just gave me a fab idea to try! Baby also just tried guac for the first time and she enjoyed it. Love when kids are open to new foods!

  12. Okay, LOVE avocado…LOVE egg salad – this is a no-brainer for me. YUM!

  13. Love both eggs and avocados, so this is on my list !!! Looks and sounds so gorgeous. Making this soon :)

  16. This family also has a love affair with avocado :) It is something we generally always have in our house as well. The perfect food, after school snack, oh the options :) I remember well when we first introduced Alena to avocado – she has craved it ever since :)

  20. Great use of avocado, Nicole. Your getting extra nutrition and knocking out the dairy with the creamy avocado =) Thank you for this recipe…Very cool that your kidlet gets to grow up healthy =)

  23. Nicole, I’ve been dreaming about this recipe since I saw your photos on Facebook. This is heavenly! It’s got everything that I love to eat. I’m totally with you – I could eat avocado any time of any day. And eggs. With chives. My mouth is watering. That is the power of your dish. Must.make.immediately!

  24. LOVE this! I use wholly guacamole 100 calorie snack packs instead of mayo in my tuna salad. It brings so much flavor to it. I cannot wait to try it with egg salad.

  25. I am now craving this for breakfast! I love avocado too. Perfect to use here and I like that there is no mayo.

  26. I used to dislike avocado as a child, and still I need to either add some vinegar dressing to it or serve it sweet with sugar otherwise it won’t pass. Your wraps would make it, no doubt!

  27. I made my first egg salad two weeks ago, but it looked nothing like this! Great job
