Description
Creamy avocado and chopped hard-boiled eggs seasoned with lemon and green onion, rolled into soft tortillas for an easy, fresh handheld lunch or snack.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large hard-boiled eggs, chopped
- 2 medium ripe avocados, peeled and mashed
- 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt or mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 2 green onions, finely chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 4 lettuce leaves, optional for crunch
Instructions
- Preheat Your Equipment: No heat required, simply gather your mixing bowl, fork, knife, and cutting board.
- Combine Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, mash the avocados with a fork until creamy. Add chopped eggs, Greek yogurt or mayonnaise, lemon juice, chopped green onions, salt, and black pepper. Stir until combined and taste to adjust seasoning.
- Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Lay each tortilla flat on a clean cutting board ready for filling.
- Assemble the Dish: Spread the avocado-egg salad evenly over each tortilla, leaving about 1 inch clear at the edges. Top with a lettuce leaf if using.
- Cook to Perfection: There is no cooking step. Roll each tortilla tightly from one end to the other to form a wrap.
- Finishing Touches: Wrap each roll tightly in plastic wrap and chill for 15 to 30 minutes for cleaner slices or slice immediately into halves or pinwheels.
- Serve and Enjoy: Arrange on a platter and serve chilled or at room temperature. Enjoy right away or store wrapped in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
Notes
- Use ripe but firm avocados to avoid a watery or mushy filling.
- Add a squeeze of extra lemon if you plan to store the filling to slow browning.
- For a creamier texture, use mayonnaise instead of Greek yogurt.
- Chill wrapped roll-ups for easier slicing and neater presentation.
