Avocado Bacon Egg Salad Sandwich – Creamy avocado substitutes for mayonnaise in this fresh classic sandwich.
Avocados are one of my newest food loves. It’s definitely a food that had to grow on me but now that it has…the possibilities are endless! I’ve been using it on tacos, sandwiches and the infamous guacamole leaves my snack craving satisfied all the time.
During our recent tea party we got on the subject of the avocado. A friend suggested I try it in place of mayo and so here we have it friends. A creamy avocado egg salad sandwich paired with crisp delicious bacon. This sandwich was absolutely amazing. I’ve always enjoyed egg salad and deviled eggs but wasn’t sure what I would think of mayo-less egg salad. But at last I’ve found a crazy good solution that I enjoy.
So I apologize if this old news and you’ve already used avocado as a replacement for other fats. But maybe you haven’t tried it with bacon. At least maybe that will give you some new inspiration for lunch.
This recipe will be perfect for ‘after Easter eats’. You know all those leftover dyed eggs and you have no idea what to do with them all. This is your NEW healthy solution. I’ve got you covered.
Til we meet and eat again,
