Egg Salad and Avocado was originally intended for people who are wearing dentures. It’s soft, easy to chew, and is high in protein. Egg salad sandwiches are the most popular way to enjoy egg salad, but bread is tricky to eat with dentures, requiring more chewing than its worth. Denture wearers don’t need bread, what they really need is protein and energy. Avocados combined with eggs makes a lunch which is high in protein and high in healthy fats that will fill you up and get you through the rest of the day. Just make sure your avocados are ripe!
Put eggs in a small pot, cover them with an inch of lukewarm water. Cook on medium heat until it reaches a rolling boil. Immediately turn off the stove and cover the pot. Let it sit for 10 minutes. Drain the water and fill the pot back up with ice cold water, this stops the eggs from cooking.
Peel the eggs and dice them. Stir in the mayonnaise and the mustard.
Slice the avocado and take out the pit. Fill each half with egg salad and eat with your favorite spoon.
