I have a quick and delicious recipe for you today. I decided to take boring, old egg salad and jazz it up a little bit.  If you like to look at food on Pinterest like I do, you have probably seen some recipes for egg salad with avocado, which has always sounded completely delicious to me!

This recipe is super simple, especially if you have boiled eggs already prepared in your fridge, like I usually do ( see my Weekly Food Prep post).
