    There are many options for low-carb salads, and this one takes the cake - coming in at just 5g of carbs. If you are really watching your intake, or are just in need of a low-key day, know that this keto avocado egg salad is just the one to keep your numbers right where they should be.

    As a bonus: it is incredibly easy to make; you can store it in the fridge till you are ready to eat, and it just so happens to taste pretty darn good too.

    For a successful egg salad, it takes mayo; there is no substitute for the real thing. Here is how to make homemade mayonnaise from the comfort of your own kitchen.

    It is a recipe that you will want to memorize because it is ultra-useful in many dishes; it also makes a great base for a dipping sauce - just saying.

    As far as the quality of eggs, seek out free-range if you can find it, opt for organic and if duck eggs happen to be available near you, then try them out too - the rich yolk will become a lovely reddish-orange hue when cooked and add some additional color interest to the plate.

    You can scoop the egg salad onto a bed of fresh leaves or concoct a fancy lettuce wrap. When in doubt, a rasher or two never hurts to protein it up a notch - just fry it well and sprinkle the golden crumbles on top.
