Bacon Avocado Egg Salad

Bacon Avocado Egg Salad, not your everyday egg salad, made with egg, avocado, onion, celery, sour cream, cumin, salt, and pepper.

This bacon avocado egg salad is a change up from your typical everyday egg salad,  there is no mayonnaise the avocado is added to replace the mayonnaise.

Mike and I love a good egg salad sandwich. I usually blend the eggs with salad dressing (Miracle Whip), salt, and pepper and possibly a bit of pickle relish. During Lent it is our typical go to lunch on Fridays, but during the year we will sneak in an egg sandwich here and there.

I am all for healthier recipes and I love the flavor of the eggs and the avocado, so it really was a no-brainer to change out the salad dressing/mayonnaise for the avocado. And you know what I really didn’t miss the salad dressing.

The avocado brings a refreshing new taste to my old favorite egg salad sandwich. I can bet that if you try this sandwich you will not miss the mayonnaise either.
