- 4 large eggs, hard-boiled and peeled

- 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
- to taste salt and pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives or green onions

Instructions
- Start by boiling the eggs: Place the eggs in a pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover the pot and remove from heat. Let sit for 9-12 minutes, then transfer to an ice bath until cooled. Peel and set aside.

- Add Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to the mashing avocado. Mix until creamy and well combined.
- Chop the hard-boiled eggs and fold them gently into the avocado mixture. Be sure to keep some egg pieces intact for texture.
- Stir in the chopped chives or green onions, adjusting seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
- Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld.
