Ingredients You’ll Need

This recipe uses fresh, simple ingredients you likely have right now.

• 2 large eggs
• 1/2 large ripe avocado, pitted and chopped
• 1 tablespoon red onion, finely diced
• 1 tablespoon red bell pepper, finely diced
• 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
• 1 teaspoon white balsamic vinegar
• 1/8 teaspoon flaky sea salt
• 1/8 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
• 1/8 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

Step-by-Step Directions

1. Place eggs in a small saucepan and cover with cold water by at least 1 inch.
2. Bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat, then immediately remove from heat and cover with a lid.
3. Let the eggs sit in the hot water for 12 minutes for a firm hard-boiled yolk.
4. Transfer the eggs to an ice water bath for 5 minutes to stop the cooking process and ease peeling.
5. Peel the cooled eggs and cut them into quarters.
6. In a medium serving bowl, combine the quartered eggs, chopped avocado, diced red onion, and diced bell pepper.
7. Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil and white balsamic vinegar over the ingredients.
8. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
9. Gently toss the ingredients with a spoon, taking care not to mash the avocado, and serve immediately.

Keep It Fresh
