Joe sandwiches can use avocado instead of mayonnaise too
Shout out to the mighty avocado! Here are just a few of the things that make it so awesome:
-More potassium than a banana
-Lowers cholesterol
-Helps relieve joint pain from arthritis
-Good source of fiber
One great healthy take away I got from my trip to Nicaragua was using avocado in place of mayo. A great recipe I have been using lately is Nicaraguan Egg Salad. It may have a different name, but my Spanish is very shaky so this is what I’m calling it.
Nicaraguan Egg Salad
Combine together in a large bowl:
-6 diced hard boiled eggs
-2 diced avocados
-2 diced roma tomatoes
-1/2 diced onion
-Handful of jalapeños
Sprinkle the whole mixture with lime juice Then add garlic salt and pepper to taste. Really simple to make, tastes great, and is a healthy alternative to regular egg salad.
Get creative and think of ways you can use avocados in place of mayo. It is a much healthier option and I think you will be pleasantly surprised at how good it tastes.
