Ingredients
  

  • 2 ripe avocados, diced
  • 4 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
  • 4 cups fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1/2 red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 cucumber, diced
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • fresh parsley or cilantro, for garnish (optional)

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl for salad
  • small bowl for dressing
  • Whisk for dressing
  • knife and cutting board for chopping ingredients

Method
 

  1. Dice avocados and place them in a large mixing bowl. Chop hard-boiled eggs, spinach, red onion, and cucumber, and add to the bowl.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, olive oil, honey or maple syrup (if using), salt, and pepper.
  3. Pour the dressing over the salad and gently toss until evenly coated.
  4. Garnish with parsley or cilantro if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

Add parsley or cilantro for extra freshness. Swap honey with maple syrup or omit for a low-carb version. Serve over toasted bread, in wraps, or as a side dish. Best enjoyed fresh as avocado may brown if stored too long.
