How to Make Avocado Egg Salad Roll-Ups:

1. Prepare the Egg Salad:
   • Hard-boil the eggs: Place them in a pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 9-12 minutes. Remove from heat, let them cool, then peel and chop.
   • In a bowl, mash the avocado until smooth. Add Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and chopped chives. Mix well.
   • Gently fold the chopped eggs into the avocado mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
2. Assemble the Roll-Ups:
   • Lay out the lettuce leaves on a flat surface. Spoon a generous amount of the avocado egg salad onto each leaf.
   • Optionally, add sliced cherry tomatoes or cucumber for extra crunch and flavor.
   • Roll up the lettuce leaves around the egg salad, securing with a toothpick if needed.
3. Serve:
   • Arrange the roll-ups on a platter and serve immediately. They can also be prepared ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for a few hours before serving.

Tips:

• For a smoother egg salad, mash the eggs more finely before mixing with the avocado.
• Use firm, fresh lettuce leaves to ensure they hold the roll-ups together.

Substitutions and Variations:

• Eggs: Use egg substitutes or tofu for a different protein source.
• Avocado: Substitute with hummus or Greek yogurt for a lighter alternative.
• Lettuce: Try using collard greens or spinach leaves if you prefer a different wrap.

Make a Healthier Version:

• Low-Fat Greek Yogurt: Use low-fat or non-fat Greek yogurt to reduce the fat content.
• Reduced Sodium: Use a low-sodium mustard and season lightly with salt.
