Print Recipe

A vibrant, refreshing, and protein-packed salad bowl made with creamy avocado, hearty eggs, and a zesty lime-Dijon dressing perfect for a nourishing meal any time of day.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ripe avocados, diced
  • 4 large eggs, hard-boiled and chopped
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 small red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 cucumber, diced
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
  • 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped (optional)
  • 1/2 cup corn kernels (optional)
  • 1/2 cup black beans, rinsed and drained (optional)
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (optional)

Instructions

  1. Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, turn off heat, cover, and let sit for 10 minutes. Transfer to an ice bath to cool.
  2. While eggs cool, prepare vegetables: dice avocados, halve cherry tomatoes, chop red onion, and dice cucumber.
  3. Peel and chop cooled eggs, then place in a large mixing bowl.
  4. Add avocados, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and cucumber to the bowl with eggs.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, juice of 1 lime, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper to taste.
  6. Pour dressing over salad ingredients and gently toss to coat.
  7. Fold in any desired optional add-ins like cilantro, mint, corn, black beans, or feta cheese.

Notes

Use ripe but firm avocados for best texture. To avoid browning, toss them with lime juice right after dicing. Avoid overmixing to prevent mushiness.
