Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 2 pieces ripe avocado
- 1 cup fresh salsa (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 piece lime, juiced
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups mixed salad greens (optional, for serving)
- 1 cup tortilla chips (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Place the eggs in a medium-sized saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the eggs simmer for 9-10 minutes.
While the eggs are cooking, cut the avocados in half, remove the pit, and dice the flesh into bite-sized pieces. Scoop the diced avocado into a large mixing bowl.
Add the fresh salsa, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and extra-virgin olive oil to the bowl with the avocado. Season with salt and black pepper, then gently toss everything to combine. Set aside.
Once the eggs are done cooking, transfer them to a bowl of ice water to cool for 5-7 minutes. Once cooled, peel the eggs and chop them into small pieces.
Add the chopped eggs to the avocado mixture and gently fold them in, being careful not to mash the avocado too much.
Taste the salad and adjust seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or lime juice, if needed.
Serve the Floridanatives Salsa Avocado and Egg Salad as-is, or over a bed of mixed salad greens for a heartier dish. You can also pair it with tortilla chips for added crunch.
