Ingredients

4 large eggs

1 ripe avocado

2 tablespoons Greek yogurt

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 teaspoon lemon juice

Salt and pepper to taste

1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped

1 celery stalk, finely diced

4 buttery croissants

Fresh lettuce leaves (optional)

Sliced tomatoes (optional)

Instructions

Boil the Eggs: Place the eggs in a saucepan, cover them with cold water and bring to a gentle boil. Once boiling, turn off the heat, cover the pot, and let the eggs sit for about 10-12 minutes. After that, cool them under cold running water and peel.

Prepare the Avocado: While the eggs are cooling, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl. Mash it gently with a fork until smooth, but still slightly chunky for texture.

Mix the Ingredients: To the mashed avocado, add the Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Stir until well-combined.

Chop the Eggs: Once peeled, chop the boiled eggs into small pieces and fold them into the avocado mixture.

Add Extras: Incorporate the chopped chives and the finely diced celery into the egg and avocado mixture for added flavor and crunch.

Prepare Croissants: Cut the croissants in half and, if desired, lightly toast them. This will enhance their flakiness.

Assemble the Salad: Spoon a generous amount of the avocado egg salad onto the bottom half of each croissant. If desired, top with fresh lettuce leaves and sliced tomatoes for added crunch and flavor.

Serve: Close the croissants with the top half and enjoy your creamy avocado egg delight immediately!
