One of my frugal go to meals on Keto is avocado egg salad. There are many different variations of this creation. However, I decided to share with you the very basic mixture. It is a very filling meal full of healthy fats.
To start with you need a small bowl. Peel and mash one hard boiled egg.
Next, either add half a drained can of tuna or one small tuna pouch.
Add half of a very ripe avocado or one small avocado cup.
Add 1-2 tablespoons of mayo and a squirt of mustard.
Mash and stir this mixture together. Add salt to taste.
Typically I eat this mixture with pickle slices. I use the pickles as you would a cracker.
Common changes I make for this dish are:
Add some chives, onion, lettuce, bacon, turkey, ham, shredded or cubed cheese, or any other flavor you want.
Omit the tuna and add a second egg. Or if really hungry, just add a second egg.
Sour cream instead of mayo is pretty good as well.
Use different seasonings such as paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, pepper, herbs, etc....
I tend to use avocado mini cups instead of avocados because I end up wasting avocados. They either take forever to ripen or all ripen at once. This way the initial cost is a bit more, but I am not wasting any food, so I save money in the long run. It is also more easily portable, which I need to take to work with me.
