Curry Powder in Egg Salads
For this recipe I used my go-to curried egg salad recipe but instead of using regular mayonnaise or vegan mayo, I added a 1/4 of an avocado. Adding curry powder to egg salad is something I started doing a couple years ago and now I don’t make egg salad without it! This particular recipe has a rich, creaminess from the avocado and a robust sweet and savory spiciness from the curry powder. The two pair together quite nicely.
Ingredients Needed:
This avocado egg recipe is really easy to make. Once your eggs are boiled, this salad comes together in no time at all. Here’s what you need:
hard boiled eggs red onion or green onion relish or chopped pickles – you can leave out the relish/pickles but I really like the flavor they add. dijon mustard apple cider vinegar avocado salt pepper curry powder raisins, dill and celery – optional add-ins.
