  • 1/2 avocado
  • 2 tbsp chopped chives
  • 1 tbsp chopped almonds

Dressing and Seasoning

  8. Season: Drizzle olive oil evenly, and add salt and pepper to taste.
  9. Serve: Serve immediately and enjoy this fresh, protein-packed salad.

  • Boil the egg to your preferred doneness; 7 minutes yields a slightly soft yolk.
  • Use fresh smoked salmon for the best flavor.
  • You can substitute almonds with walnuts or seeds if desired.
  • Adjust olive oil quantity to your taste preference.
  • This salad is best served fresh and not kept for long periods.
