Can I make the egg salad ahead of time?

Yes, prepare it up to a day in advance and store it covered in the fridge. Add a bit of lemon juice to keep the avocado fresh.

What bread works best for this sandwich?

Whole-grain bread is ideal for fiber and flavor, but multigrain or rye are also great options.

Can I make it dairy-free?

Yes—swap Greek yogurt for a plant-based alternative like coconut or soy yogurt.

Is this good for meal prep?

Yes, just store the filling separately from the bread and assemble right before eating to avoid sogginess.

How can I boost the protein content even more?

Add an extra egg or mix in 1–2 tablespoons of cottage cheese or protein-rich yogurt.
