5 from 1 vote

This "taco salad", with jicama, avocado, and egg is a fantastic lunch, that won't make you feel guilty for having seconds! This that can be thrown together literally in minutes if you have a few things on hand.

During this unique time in history, eggs seems like something we can and should always have on hand.

If you happen to have an overabundance of eggs, hard boiling them is a great way to have protein on hand that can be used in multiple ways and provide some different texture than your typical breakfast scramble or over easy.

I always have uses for hard boiled eggs they can go in all types of salads, sandwiches, and you can make sauces out of the yolks as well. This is super easy and fast, and surprisingly filling. Here is the perfect vegetarian salad that is perfect for summer! Here is the recipe I hope you enjoy it!
