Notes
- This recipe is best prepared and eaten on the same day. However, leftovers can be kept in the fridge for up to 2 days. After that, the avocado will start to brown and oxidize.
- If you don't have fresh dill, try using a pinch of dried dill instead. Start with 1/2 teaspoon and then taste and add more to your liking.
- Don't have light mayonnaise? You can use regular full-fat mayo insead.
- Not a fan of mayo at all? Try using plain Greek yogurt.
- If you want to experiment with adding different flavors to this egg salad, try adding different herbs like fresh parsley or cilantro.
