Growing up, I thought I hated avocado. I didn't like it in my sushi (preferred cucumber instead), and I guess I never considered trying it any other way. It turns out - I LOVE avocado, and I can't get enough. I even want it in my sushi now! Some people have gone as far as to claim the avocado is and "superfood" and one of the world's healthiest foods. Besides guacamole, avocado can be used in so many ways (in salads, omelettes or even baked), but my favorite way to use avocado is instead of mayonnaise, especially in egg salad. Check out my Avocado Egg Salad Recipe below using only three ingredients!
