5 Healthy Recipes for The Young Professional // Recipe 2

4/4/2017

 
​I would be remiss if I didn't take more time to warmly introduce the guest blogger and mastermind behind this Healthy Recipe series!

I met Victoria Sgro by chance at a local co-working space. From our very first interaction, her love for others and passion for food and wholistic health has inspired me! Read more about her story (and her precious baby) here! 
 
I hope you enjoy this next recipe as much as I did! I freaking LOVE avocados <3

Avocado Egg Salad (serves 1)

Picture
INGREDIENTS:
2 boiled eggs
½ hass avocado
juice of ½ a lime
salt & pepper to taste
1 ounce spinach
drizzle of dressing
 
DRESSING INGREDIENTS:
¼ cup olive oil
2.5 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 small clove of garlic, minced
pinch of salt and pepper
 
INSTRUCTIONS:
  1. If making your own dressing, whisk all the ingredients together in a small bowl. (Helpful tip: If you puree all the dressing ingredients in a food processor for 10-15 seconds, your oil and vinegar will emulsify and won’t separate, making for a “creamy” dressing!)
  2. Cut your ½ avocado in small chunks and mash with a fork until smooth. Chop up your peeled boiled eggs into small pieces. Mix your eggs, avocado, lime juice, and salt and pepper all together.
  3. Serve your avocado egg salad on the bed of spinach and drizzle with homemade dressing (or store bought dressing of your choice!).
 
MAKE IT LUNCH:
  1. The lime juice should help to prevent the avocado from browning, but you may still notice some discoloration. Try storing your egg salad in its own container before throwing it in your lunch box. Press a piece of plastic wrap or foil down on top, and then cover with a tight fitting lid. Scoop it onto your greens and drizzle with dressing when you’re ready to eat, and it’ll look at bright and delicious as it did fresh!
  2. Pack this for lunch with a side of organic tortilla chips and salsa. The lime and avocado in the salad are a great pair with salsa, and the chips provide a nice crunchy snack to accompany this healthy dish!
 
KEEP IT SIMPLE:
  1. Don’t want to make your own dressing? Grab a bottle from the store. Just check to make sure it has pure, simple ingredients, and no sugar!
