Avocado and hard boiled eggs. One of the simplest dishes you can make, yet it’s not only tasty but healthy and abundant in nutrients your body needs. It’s rich in protein, has a high content of heart-healthy fats, it’s keto and vegetarian. What else would you need?
It’s as simple as it gets. Only hard boiled eggs, delicious avocado, mouth-watering extra virgin olive oil, and of course some salt and pepper. Fix this quick dinner any time and forget that healthy food cannot be tasty.
Oh, and by the way, you don’t need to prepare this dish for dinner just because I did so. You can enjoy it really any time. Avocado and hard boiled eggs with a dash of olive oil and some spices can also be eaten as a salad, an appetizer or even as a healthy keto breakfast.
Be aware though that all ingredients have a high calorie content, so this is not a low-calorie food.

An Extra Tip
Eating this with some fresh baguette and a dash of mayo obviously removes it from the keto and healthy food list. But man, you just have to try that if you’re not on a strict diet at the moment!
