Method
- Begin by bringing a saucepan filled with water to a boil. Carefully add the eggs and let them cook for about 10 minutes for hard-boiled eggs.
- Once cooked, remove the eggs and place them in cold water for a few minutes to cool.
- While the eggs cool, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl.
- Mash the avocado with a fork until soft and creamy. Add lemon juice and mix well to prevent browning.
- Peel the cooled eggs, chop them finely, and add them to the avocado mash. Stir until fully combined.
- For a smoother texture, you can puree the mixture if desired or add a little breast milk or formula to attain the preferred consistency.
- Taste the mash and sprinkle a pinch of salt if you choose. Serve in small portions suitable for the baby.
