This easy keto egg salad is a quick and healthy low carb lunch with plenty of protein and delicious flavor!
The other day I asked my Facebook friends what one Keto staple they could eat every day was.
Two of the most popular answers? Eggs and avocados.
And I understand why! These are both delicious, cheap, and easy foods that are really easy to fit into your macros.
I never thought I'd be one to say I could eat eggs every day, but truth is... I totally could.

Easy Keto Egg Salad
If you've been Keto for a while, I bet you agree with these answers, and have made eggs and avocados a very regular part of your diet.
That's why the recipe I'm sharing with you today combines BOTH for an awesome low carb, high fat meal.
P.S. This would taste awesome with bacon!

I like the sound of this, may add some chopped chives to give nice colour too.

This was delicious, but way too soupy for a sandwich. Will decrease the mayo next time. Loved the avacado in there. Will also try with some "Everything but the Bagel" seasoning.

Absolutely Delicious! I went ahead and added a tablespoon of white distilled vinegar and a little bit of truvia. Tasted just like potato salad without the potato. Thanks for this recipe!
