Avocado Egg Salad RITZ Cracker Snacks—smashed avocado is mixed with hard boiled eggs, chopped tomatillos, creamy Greek yogurt and cilantro and then slathered on top of a RITZ Cracker for a perfect snack or appetizer.
A while ago I discovered avocado deviled eggs. I think they taste amazing but I’m not always in the mood to take the time to assemble deviled eggs. Enter a new idea–Avocado Egg Salad. Yes! It’s a better-for-you version of egg salad because it uses Greek yogurt and avocado in the place of mayo. It’s truly so flavorful and filling that I could eat it every day for breakfast or lunch.
You know what’s even more fun? To top a RITZ Cracker with the avocado egg salad mixture. It’s a perfect little snack for hungry kids when they get home from school. My kids are totally addicted to these! I just make the egg salad mixture and store it in an airtight container and then my kids can grab a RITZ Cracker and top it with the egg salad anytime they are hungry. Win for me because I don’t have to help them and win for them because they get an awesome snack.
I shopped for my RITZ Crackers at my local Smith’s (Kroger banner) store. I love Kroger stores because they always have great prices and the sales are amazing. My local Smith’s is perfect because I can always find what I need but it’s not an overwhelmingly large store. I can get in and out of there in just a few minutes. I also feel like I’m sort of friends with the cashiers since I see them on an average of 3 times per week. Just the reality of my job (and lack of planning!).
