Avocado Egg Salad Sandwich

Avocado egg salad sandwiches are the perfect way to get your favorite lunchtime fix, while also nourishing your body with some healthy fats and protein! 

I am not one to typically be all about "diet foods", or foods that are obviously supposed to be one way, but then someone put a healthy spin on it. Like in the case for this egg salad. I've seen avocado egg salad sandwich recipes all over the internet for the last several years, but I never wanted to make it because it just seemed like a gimmicky diet food that probably tasted really bad. 

Then I actually tried it and my mind was blown. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that I actually might like avocado egg salad sandwiches more than traditional egg salad sandwiches. And that is coming from someone who really, REALLY loves mayonnaise. This lunch was perfect, creamy, and flavorful, without being super heavy and feeling like you can't eat or move for the rest of the day. I'm super pumped to have this again in the near future.
