- Boil the Eggs: Place the eggs gently in a medium-sized pot and cover them with water by about an inch. Turn the heat to medium-high and bring the water to a rolling boil. Once boiling, cover the pot, remove from heat, and allow the eggs to steep for 10-12 minutes.
- Prepare the Avocados: Slice the ripe avocados in half, carefully removing the pit. Scoop out the flesh and mash it lightly with a fork, leaving some chunky pieces.
- Mix in Fresh Ingredients: Add finely chopped red onion, halved cherry tomatoes, and chopped cilantro to the bowl with the mashed avocado. Drizzle in olive oil and squeeze fresh lime juice over the mixture.
- Cool and Chop the Eggs: Transfer the eggs to an ice water bath for about 5 minutes. After cooling, peel the eggs, chop them into bite-sized pieces.
- Combine and Season: Add the chopped eggs to the avocado mixture, sprinkle with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if desired. Gently fold to combine.
- Taste and Adjust: Before serving, taste the salad and adjust seasoning as needed.
- Serve and Enjoy: Your Egg Avocado Salad is ready! Serve it on its own, over greens, in lettuce wraps, or on toasted bread.

Notes
Consume the salad within 1-2 days for optimal freshness, stored in an airtight container. It's best enjoyed fresh as the avocado may brown over time.
