A quick, fresh, and healthy avocado egg salad served in crisp lettuce wraps, seasoned with everything seasoning for a flavorful twist on classic egg salad.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs, hard-boiled and peeled
  • 1 medium ripe avocado, mashed
  • 2 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt (or dairy-free yogurt)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 to 1 ½ teaspoons everything seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 8 large romaine or butter lettuce leaves
  • Optional add-ins: chopped fresh chives, diced celery, or a pinch of smoked paprika

Instructions

  1. Place 6 large eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover with cold water by about 1 inch. Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, then cover, remove from heat, and let sit for 10-12 minutes.
  2. Transfer eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool for 5 minutes.
  3. Crack the shells gently all around and peel under running water if needed. Chop the eggs roughly into bite-sized pieces directly in a mixing bowl.
  4. In a separate bowl, mash 1 ripe avocado with a fork until creamy but still with some small chunks for texture.
  5. Add the mashed avocado, 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt, 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard to the chopped eggs. Stir gently to combine without mashing the eggs too much.
  6. Sprinkle in 1 to 1 ½ teaspoons of everything seasoning, plus salt and pepper to taste. Fold everything together carefully. Optional: stir in chopped chives or diced celery for crunch.
  7. Rinse and dry 8 large romaine or butter lettuce leaves. Pat dry to avoid sogginess.
  8. Spoon the avocado egg salad evenly into the center of each lettuce leaf. Fold or roll gently to create wraps.
  9. Serve immediately for best freshness, or refrigerate the filling separately for up to 24 hours.

Notes

[‘Use an ice bath after boiling eggs to stop cooking and make peeling easier.’, ‘Keep some texture in the mashed avocado for contrast with chopped eggs.’, ‘Season gradually with everything seasoning to avoid overpowering the salad.’, ‘Keep lettuce leaves dry to prevent sogginess; use a salad spinner if available.’, ‘Prepare egg salad filling ahead but assemble wraps just before serving to maintain crispness.’, ‘Older eggs peel easier than very fresh eggs.’, ‘Optional add-ins like chives, celery, or smoked paprika add extra flavor and texture.’, ‘For vegan option, substitute eggs with mashed chickpeas or crumbled tofu and use dairy-free yogurt.’]
