Avocado-Egg Salad Sandwiches With Pickled Celery
- 6 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons water
- 3 tablespoons cider vinegar
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 1/4 cup finely chopped celery
- 1/4 cup mashed ripe avocado
- 1 tablespoon canola mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- 3/4 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 3/8 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons dry-roasted salted sunflower seeds
- 8 (1-ounce) slices whole-grain sunflower bread, toasted (such as Ezekiel)
- 1 cup baby arugula

- Add water to a large saucepan to a depth of 1 inch; set a large vegetable steamer in pan. Bring water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add eggs to steamer. Cover and steam eggs 16 minutes. Remove from heat. Place eggs in a large ice water-filled bowl.
- While eggs cook, combine 3 tablespoons water, vinegar, and sugar in a medium microwave-safe bowl; microwave at HIGH 2 minutes or until boiling. Add celery; let stand 15 minutes. Drain.
- Meanwhile, combine avocado, mayonnaise, juice, mustard, pepper, and salt in a medium bowl, stirring well until smooth.
- Peel eggs; discard shells. Slice eggs in half lengthwise; reserve 2 yolks for another use. Chop remaining eggs and egg whites. Gently stir eggs, celery, and sunflower seeds into avocado mixture. Top 4 bread slices with about 1/2 cup egg mixture, 1/4 cup arugula, 1 tomato slice, and remaining 4 bread slices.
