Avocado Egg Salad

This might have been the best egg salad Dave and I have ever made.   I think what we loved most about this egg salad is the tang from the plain yogurt and the vinegar.  It was awesome on some nice soft fresh bread!

Beware-  It was not as tasty leftover.  Still edible, but it lost some of it's flavor :(

Ingredients:
4 large hard-boiled eggs, chopped (keep the 4 hard boiled yolks separate for later)
4 hard boiled egg whites, chopped (discard the yolks from these eggs)
1 medium hass avocado, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 tbsp light mayonnaise
1 tbsp fat free plain yogurt
1/2 tablespoon finely chopped chives (we omitted, because we didn't have any)
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
1/2 tsp Kosher salt
pinch freshly ground pepper

Directions:
1.  Combine the egg yolks with the avocado, light mayo, yogurt, chives, vinegar, salt and pepper.
2.  Mash with a fork.
3.  Combine with egg whites and add salt if needed.

Servings: 6

I'm tagging this as "healthy." Low cal, and the fat is good fat from avocado. Here's the nutrition info:

Sorry no picture yet! I'll have to take one next time we make this (hopefully soon!)
