Guacamole(ish) Egg Salad Sandwiches & Lettuce Wraps

A delicious and mayo free marriage of egg salad and guacamole that is easy, healthy and a great way to mix things up with your weekday lunches.

This is definitely up there on my list of favorite egg salad recipes and it really just started with a desire to make an egg salad recipe that was both mayo and dairy free. Once I decided to use ripe avocados with a touch of high quality olive oil as a creamy substitute, I quickly started to drift more and more towards turning this into a almost sort of guacamole egg salad.

I have zero regrets, this egg salad turned out fantastic and is such a solid option if you’re looking for something thats a bit lighter and avoids dairy.

Full recipe and breakdown is below for the salad along with a recipe mods, a bunch of notes, a sandwich and a lettuce wrap version!

Cheers,

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Serves: Makes 3 sandwiches

Mods:

• You can make a sandwich with this egg salad or lettuce wraps using layers of butter lettuce leaves. You can also use romaine spears for a bit more of a bitter crunch.

• You can also use a molcajete or a mortar and pestle to smash together the onion, serrano and a large portion of the cilantrol with some coarse salt for a more evenly mixed and flavorful experience. This is also much more similar to how a traditional guacamole would be made (also in a molcajete, recipe to come soon!).

Notes:

• Store in an airtight container and cover the salad in plastic wrap, pressing it into the egg salad to make sure there is no air stuck between them so that the salad doesn’t brown.

• Best served immediately but also will last 2-4 days in the fridge. Add in the larger measurement of lime juice if you need the mixture to last longer.
