A quick and easy breakfast or snack featuring creamy mashed avocado combined with fluffy chopped hard-boiled eggs, topped with everything bagel seasoning on toasted bread.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large eggs, hard-boiled and chopped (room temperature for best mixing)
  • 1 ripe avocado, peeled and mashed
  • 1 tablespoon plain Greek yogurt (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Everything bagel seasoning, about 1 teaspoon or to preference
  • 4 slices whole-grain or sourdough bread, toasted
  • Optional garnish: chopped fresh chives or parsley

Instructions

  1. Place 4 large eggs in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water by about an inch. Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat (about 5 minutes).
  2. Remove the saucepan from heat and cover with a lid. Let eggs sit in hot water for 10-12 minutes for fully hard-boiled eggs.
  3. Transfer eggs to a bowl of ice water or run under cold water for 5 minutes to stop cooking and make peeling easier.
  4. Gently tap eggs on a hard surface to crack shells, peel, and chop roughly into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
  5. In a mixing bowl, scoop out the flesh of 1 ripe avocado. Mash it with a fork or potato masher until creamy but still slightly chunky.
  6. Stir in 1 tablespoon plain Greek yogurt, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, and 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice. Mix until smooth and well combined.
  7. Gently fold the chopped eggs into the avocado mixture. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Adjust seasoning as needed.
  8. Toast 4 slices of whole-grain or sourdough bread until golden and crisp.
  9. Spread a generous layer of the creamy avocado egg salad over each slice. Sprinkle everything bagel seasoning liberally on top.
  10. Add chopped fresh chives or parsley if desired, and serve immediately.

Notes

Use ripe avocados for best creamy texture. Lemon juice is essential to prevent browning. Be gentle when folding eggs to keep texture. Toast bread well to avoid sogginess. Optional Greek yogurt adds tang and creaminess. Substitute dairy-free yogurt and gluten-free bread for vegan and gluten-free versions.
