Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil over high heat.
- Using a slotted spoon, carefully lower 6 large eggs into the boiling water. Set a timer and boil for 10 minutes.
- When the 10 minutes are up, use the slotted spoon to transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking. Let the eggs sit in the ice water for 15 minutes.
- While the eggs cool, scoop the flesh of 1 ripe avocado into a large mixing bowl. Add 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard, and ½ teaspoon fine sea salt. Mash with a fork until relatively smooth.
- Remove the eggs from the ice water, discard the ice water, gently tap and peel the shells, and pat the peeled eggs dry with a paper towel. Roughly chop the peeled, hard‑boiled eggs and add them to the bowl with the avocado mixture.
- Add the ? cup diced celery (~1 large rib), ¼ cup diced red onion (~¼ onion), and 2 tablespoons fresh dill to the bowl. Stir gently until ingredients are evenly combined and the egg is broken up to your preferred texture.
- Taste and adjust seasoning by adding more fine sea salt to taste, if desired.
- Serve as a filling for sandwiches, pita, or lettuce wraps, or use as a dip for crackers. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; the salad may brown over time and will have the best appearance if served within 24 hours.
